, (2008/06/13)
Methods and compositions are described for treatment to control brain damage associated with anoxia or ischemia which typically follows stroke, cardiac arrest or perinatal asphyxia. The treatment includes administration of an alkenyl-substituted or alkynyl-substituted thiobarbiturate characterized in having broad-spectrum activity as an antagonist to inhibit excitotoxic actions at major neuronal excitatory amino acid receptor sites.
