Zolpidem, Zaleplon (Sonata), esZopiclone (Lunesta); Behaviorally similar to BZs; Pregnancy Class C; Flumazenil reverses;

20
Q

Buspirone

A

(Buspar); Long acting Anti-anxiety; Don’t prescribe for dental anxiety; Proposed action partial agonist at serotonin 5HT receptors, Minor antagonist action on dopaminergic receptors, Increased use in psychiatry; Min sedation, Not anticonvulsant, Little risk of dependence; Drug interaction - MAO inhibitors (hypertension), RX 5-10mg

21
Q

Q

Barbiturate Side Effects and Toxicity

A

Hangover, Paradoxical excitement (Inhibitory neurons more, Occurs before anesthesia), Decreased REM sleep, Dependence (Related to dose and duration - Severe withdrawl), Induce drug metabolizing enzymes of liver (P450, UGT) - Metabolic intolerance (Pharmacokinetic intolerance, Some pharmacodynamic, Less and less drug effect), Drug interactions (Sedation), Porphyria (ALA synthetase increase contraindication), Respiratory and cardiac depression (High dose), Allergies, Birth defects Class D
