Multicenter Trial of Naloxone in Alzheimer's Disease
Ann Neurol 25:404-406, Henderson,V.W.,et al, 1989
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
In a double-blind,placebo-controlled,crossover study of intravenously administered naloxone hydrochloride,54 subjects with clinically ascertained Alzheimer's disease tested at three university centers showed no significant improvement in neuropsychological performance after 1-mg or 10-mg doses;15 patients at 1 center were similarly unimproved after receiving 30 mg naloxone(single blind).Findings fail to support claims that naloxone monotherapy ameliorates cognitive impairments of Alzheimer's disease.
