judgement
etoh will change ---- patterns

will --- latency to fall asleep

decrease/increase REM
sleep

decrease

decrease REM
etoh use can progress to -- and death
coma
why etoh not good for long term anticonvulsant
big rebound effect on seizure threshold, so an increase in seizure sensitivity btw 12-24 hrs after last dose
etoh will decrease/increase seizure frequency

increase/decrease latency to seizure
decrease

increase latency

not useful against seizure due to short t1/2
why isn't etoh an effective analgesia
cuz no selective

impairs senses
how is etoh emetic
stimulates ctz
tx uses of etoh

----- for topical agents

antedote for --- poisoning
solvent: helps drug get thru skin

methanol
etoh increases --- release in NAc
DA: euphoric effects

w/ alcholics involves release of endogenous opiates
etoh inhibits ---- ---- receptor fx , so there's anmestic effects. . . this inhibits production of ------
glutamate NMDA

LTP
at high conc there's --- inhbition of cognitive fx
kainate
etoh enchances ---- stimulated ----- conductance
GABA

Chloride
what subunits mostly affected by gaba a
alpha

beta

gamma 2L (long)

so this will lead to sedation
etoh inhibits ---- sensitive Ca channels
voltage

at 150-300 mg % more severe sedation and coma
etoh --- cell membrane
fluidizes

etoh is a solvent it melts fat of membrances. . . screws up structure

at 500 mg%
there rapid/slow tolerance to etoh even w/ 1st drink
rapid
why w/ etoh there's frequenct wakenings at night
due to rapid tolerance

becoming less sedated
etoh can get into lipids easily and affect the -- -----
ion channels

possibly K channels . . .most sensitive. . .increase fiiring
which is more sensitive to etoh

gamma 2 short or long
long
vaso----- of cutaneous vessels leads to ------
dilation

hypothermia
at very high doses of etoh what will happen to the temp
respet hypothalmic temp setpoint
> 3 drinks /day is -----
cardiotoxic

damage to vasculature
etoh will increase --- and decrease --- in the blood
increase HDL

decrease LDL

decrease coronary heart disease by about 40%
how many drinks to prevent heart disease
1-2 drinks/day

better w/ flavonoids (red wine). . . enhance the effects
etoh will increase ---- acid secretions

still will worsen ---

and ---- se
gastric

ulcers

NSAIDS
etoh inhibits --- secretion

decreases/increase renal reabsoption of water
ADH

decreases

. . . so dehydration

diuresis
high doses of etoh will depress -----

this is -- w/ other sedatives
respiration

synergistic
dose of etoh depends on:

----

rate of ----

--- conc
weight

absorption

etoh

also, gender, body fat, sleep status
first signs of intoxication:
20mg%
under 21 illegal
30mg%
legally impaired in many states
50mg%
dui
80mg%
7x more likely to cause an accident
100mg%
25x more likely to cause an accident
150mg%
death:
400 mg%
antedote for etoh
stomach pump
t/f

coma always due to etoh
f

cause be due to head injury, DM
90-98% of metabolism of etoh is
hepatic
most metabolism of etoh is
dehydrogenase
cyp involved in etoh
cyp2E1
avg drink has -- g of etoh
14
etoh dehydrogenase converts ethanol to ----
acetaldehyde
acetaldehyde dehydrogenase converts --- to ---
acetaldehyde

acetyl coA
which has zero order kinetics
alcohol dehydrogenase
which has 1st order kinetics
acetaldehyde dehydrogenase
when will acetaladehyde begin to build up
if the person drinks more than zero order
what will cause flushed face, ha, vomiting, sweating
acetaldehyde
why use disulfiram w/ etoh abuse
it blocks acetaldehyde dehydrogenase
metanol metabolized to -- ---
formic acid

and

formaldehyde by denaturization
what can cause death w/ methanol
severe acidosis
what can cause blindness w/ methanol
specific toxicity for retinal cells

irreversible
methanol has specific toxicity for --- cells
retinal cells
what's the antedote for methanol
ethanol

uses 0 order kinetscs so it floods the system so only 7-10g/hr

so, it inhibits formaldehyde formation
etoh is additive w/
bdz's

sedatives

anethetics

antipsychotics

tca

opiates

(increase amnesia and resp depression)
etoh will decrease absorption and increase metabolism of ----
pcn
etoh promotes ---- induced gastric bleeding
NSAID
what other meds will inhibt acet. dehyd
1st gen oral hypoglycemics

cephalosporins

methronidazole - may in some sub-populations
initially etoh will compete for ---- so increases many drug levels

decreases drug levels
what do you become tolerant to in etoh
all initial effects except death
PK changes due to etoh:


increased activity of --- ---

increased contribution by induction of ------
etoh dehydrogenase (so more than 7-10 g metabolized)

CYP2E1 (from 2 to 10% being metabolized . . . more metabolized)

more metabolized so you need more to get the effects
