Abstract
Many different drugs of abuse are administered via an inhalation route . However, no pragmatic, infraprimate model has been developed to asse ss the self-administration of these pharmaceutical agents in the labor atory setting. This paper describes an apparatus designed to assess th e self-administration of these pharmaceutical agents in a rodent model .
