Rotundine combined with methadone treatment may be a better therapeutic method in treatment of heroin dependence.[1]
Rhizoma Zingiberis(RZ), Flos Magnoliae(FM), and Fructus Litseae(FL), both have enhancing effect on Rotundine permeation.[2]
Rotundine injection can ameliorate the damages by modulating the activities of different types of NOS, and the various types of NOS play different roles in the lung damages after brain I/R injury at different stages in rats; rotundine provides remarkable protection against cerebral ischemia reperfusion damage, Its mechanisms may be through its influence on NO、ET 1 and energy metabolism.[3,4]
