Abstract

The present study will investigate if the administration of a 5-HT2A and D2 antagonist will cause greater cocaine-induced behavioral sensitization in Japanese quail than antagonism of either receptor alone. This could provide further support for the role of 5-HT2A and D2 receptors in treatments targeted toward cocaine use disorder.
