Results and discussion

Any other information on results incl. tables

Cyclohexylamine hydrochloride is a weak central nervous system stimulant as evidenced by its ability to increase levels of sponatneous motor activity in mice at high doses.

Cyclohexylamine hydrochlolride exhibits weak antidepressant activity at high doses in the DOPA antidepressant test in mice. it is not a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (as evaluated in the mouse DOPA potentiation test.

Cyclohexylamine hydrochloride in the rabbit exhibits mild central nervous system stimulant properties when evaluated by EEG techniques.
