Abstract
With the advent of thrombolysis and the ability to reperfuse during focal ischemia, the question arises of what type of neuroprotective drugs can be used in combination with thromblytic therapy to prevent focal injury from occurring. From an experimental point of view, there are three groups: anti-excitatory drugs, antioxidants, and inhibitors of leukocyte inflammatory response.
