Tolerance to the suppressive effects of cocaine on milk drinking by rats was studied using a contingent tolerance experimental design. Three separate groups (n = 6) of rats received 8.0, 16.0, or 32.0 mg/kg cocaine daily 15 min before a 15-min period of access to sweetened condensed milk for 20 days. Three additional groups of six rats each received the same chronic doses 15 min after access to milk. Milk, water, and food intake as well as body weight were measured daily. Tolerance effects were assessed by comparing initial acute dose-effect determinations with a probe dose-effect redetermination in which all rats again received doses of cocaine pre-session after having experienced the differential pre- or post-session chronic treatment. Behavioral tolerance on the milk intake measure was observed for the 8.0 mg/kg and 16.0 mg/kg doses, but not for the 32.0 mg/kg chronic treatment, even though the latter group exhibited evidence of tolerance in the water intake measure. Chronic treatment with 8.0 and 16.0 mg/kg produced different outcomes in that chronic exposure to 16.0 mg/kg in the presence of milk resulted in generalization of tolerance to both a lower (8.0 mg/kg) and a higher dose (32.0 mg/kg), but the group receiving 8.0 mg/kg did not exhibit generalization of tolerance to higher doses. Modest sensitization effects were observed in the rats treated post-session with either 8.0 or 16.0 mg/kg.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
