Abstract
The present invention pertains to a method for the reduction of glutamate neurotoxicity in pathophysiology of spinal cord injury induced by aortic cross-clamping. The reduction is achieved by the administration of riluzole to a patient, in an amount effective to reduce glutamate neurotoxicity, contemporaneously with aortic cross-clamping. Preferably, the riluzole is administered both prior to and following the aortic cross-clamping. The method is also applicable to reduce the spinal cord injury resulting from ischemia, and for reducing the effects of ischemia on neuronal tissues.
