  • Values are means ± S.E. n = cells/rats. FLM: i.p. injection of FLM; VEH: i.p. injection of FLM vehicle. Zolpidem potentiation (%) is expressed as a percentage of the baseline value in the absence of zolpidem. *, significant difference (p ≤ .05) between 1-week FZP- and saccharin-treated control (CON) groups. p values are versus control of respective group.
