Traxoprodil is potent at blocking haloperidol-induced catalepsy and with an ED₅₀ less than 1 mg/kg. Traxoprodil is effective at 1 mg/kg to block NMDA (ip) stimulated cfos induction in mice^[1]. Traxoprodil at a dose of 20 and 40 mg/kg exhibits antidepressant activity in the Forced swim test and it is not related to changes in animals’ locomotor activity^[2]. Traxoprodil (20 nM i.c.v.) increases the latency to generalized tonic-clonic seizures induced by PTZ (70 mg/kg; i.p.). Traxoprodil (60 mg/kg, p.o.) increases the latency to clonic and generalized seizures, and decreases the total time spent in seizures^[3].
