My best guess would be that I was adversely affected by aminoguanidine's nitric oxide synthase inhibition. There is a study showing that neonatal rats that were administered the nitric oxide synthase inhibitor n-omega-nitro-l-arginine were later shown to have decreased levels of nitric oxide and to exhibit schizophrenia-like behaviors (Morales-Medina, 2008). Then again, I've taken Paxil, which inhibits nitric oxide synthase, and I never experienced anything like what I experienced after taking aminoguanidine. Maybe the type of nitric oxide synthase being inhibited makes a difference, or maybe something other that aminoguanidine's nitric oxide synthase inhibition caused the reaction that I had. I don't know. As I said, what I put forth was just a guess.
