The effects of N-methyl d-aspartate and B-adrenergic receptor antagonists on the reconsolidation of reward memory: A meta-analysis

► Meta-analysis of NMDAR and B-adrenergic antagonists in preclinical reward reconsolidation. ► Larger effects of NMDAR (r = .613) than B-adrenergic (r = .24) antagonists were found. ► 'Relapse process', trace type, reinforcer and drug dose moderated effect sizes. ► NMDAR antagonists particularly might be of clinical use in treating addiction.
