Dose–response for intra-amygdala flumazenil pretreatments that selectively counteract ethanol withdrawal-induced anxiety-like behavior. Rats were implanted with cannulae above the amygdala, exposed to 3 cycles of chronic ethanol diet with or without flumazenil pretreatments (2.5, 5, or 10 μg/μl per side) during the first 2 withdrawals. Other groups and abbreviations are as per Fig. 2. *p < 0.05 versus CD-Veh.
