In contrast, baclofen has been shown to block bicuculline-induced epileptiform activity in in vitro preparations of the hippocampus [6, 7, 20; but see: 73] and the frontal neocortex [56]. These results also indicate that baclofen's reductions of excitatory synaptic transmission are resistant to blockade by bicuculline and indeed baclofen's reductions of EPSP amplitudes are not antagonized by this GABAA receptor antagonist [56]. The advent of in vitro slice preparations of the mammalian CNS has made it possible to evaluate the action of known concentrations of drugs on neurons in these preparations under steady state conditions.

Alternately, the use of synergistic pairs of receptorselective agents acting at different receptors suggests a possible way to slow the general progression of tolerance when chronic treatment is undertaken and large physiological effects are required (as in severe pain). Thus, physiological synergy between two receptor substrates permits a maximum physiological effect to be achieved with a relatively small amount of occupation of either receptor. A reduction in the rate of tolerance development with combined administration of morphine and alpha 2 -agonists has been demonstrated in the primate [109].
