We studied the effects of 2-(hexyl(methyl)amino)methyl)pyridyl-3-dimethyl carbamate (OPDC), a structural analogue of aminostigmine oxalate, on memory formation in rats with toxic scopolamine-induced amnesia. It was shown that OPDC in non-toxic doses ((1)/215 LD50) has significant anti-amnesic action. Ipidacrine and galantamine in the doses similar to toxic doses ((1)/17 and (1)/6 of LD50, respectively) induced the retention of memory trace. Administration of aminostigmine ((1)/11 of LD50) induced unstable anti-amnesic effect in the model of scopolamine-induced amnesia.
