Q

Midazolam mechanism of action

A

Attaches and binds to alpha subunits on the GABA-A receptor.

Leaves the Cl- channel open, hyperpolarizing the cell post synaptically.

Works on GABA-A in the cerebral cortex , cerebellum cortex, and thalamus.

Q

Propofol mechanism of action

A

Induces GA by facilitating inhibitory neurotransmission by GABA-A receptors - binds to the beta subunit on GABA - A receptor.

Results in sedative/ hypnotic effects - GABA -A receptors activated, transmembrane chloride conductance increased = hyper polarization of post synaptic cell membrane and functional inhibition of post synaptic neuron.

Appears in the urine within 10 minutes of injection

Biological t1/2 4-5 min.

298
Q
