Objective response to ethanol in essential tremor: results from a standardized ethanol challenge study
Using the harmaline-induced rodent model of ET, octanol showed a robust reduction of tremor in a dose-dependent manner after intraperitoneal injections Sinton et al. 1989. Moreover, studying the same tremor model, octanol had a longer duration of tremor-controlling effect than another long-chain alcohol, heptanol, at the same doses. Alcohol is an indirect agonist of the…
