Magnesium Pemoline: Enhancement of Learning and Memory of a Conditioned Avoidance Response

Magnesium pemoline, a mild stimulant of the central nervous system, enhances the acquisition and retention of a conditioned avoidance response in rats. Methamphetamine and methylphenidate do not have this effect.
