1. A method of treating or reducing the toxic effects of exposure to a nerve agent, or treating or reducing the risks of a neurological condition, comprising administering to a mammalian subject in need thereof:
(i) an AMPA/GluR5(GluK1) kainate receptor antagonist and
(ii) an NMDA receptor antagonist, and, optionally, further comprising administering a positive allosteric modulator of synaptic GABAA receptors to the subject,
wherein the AMPA/GluR5(GluK1) kainate receptor antagonist and the NMDA receptor antagonist and, optionally, the positive allosteric modulator of synaptic GABA.sub.A receptors, are administered orally or via a route of injection selected from intravenous, subcutaneous, and intraperitoneal.
