A

Benzos

substitue action of alcohol on GABA receptors

chlordizepoxide
diazepam

*short acting are used in pts w/ advanced liver dysfxn

21
Q

Flushed skin and mydriasis

A

muscarinic receptor blockade

22
Q

A 
atropine
TCAs
H1 receptor antags
neuroleptics

23
Q

drugs that are preferentially processed by the liver

A

lipophillic!–allows drugs to cross cell barriers more easily and enter hepatocytes (high Vd, good penetration into CNS) are preferentially processed by liver into more polar cmpds for easier elimination into bile and urine

A

comm hydrocephalus often occurs d/t dyxfxn of subarachnoid villi

*commonly seen w/ meningeal infection or hemorrhage

29
