|
Barbiturates
|
phenobarb, pentobarb, thiopental, secobarbital
facilitate GABAa action by increasing DURATION of Cl- channel opening, thus decrease neuron firing use: sedative, seizures, insomnia, induce anesthesia (thiopental) Phenobarb increases liver metab, used in Criglar-Najjar II to induce glucuronyltransferase Tox: resp or CV depression, induce p450 for OD: symptomatic |

act at BZ1 receptor subtype; reversed by FLUMAZENIL use: insomnia tox: ataxia, HA, confusion *rapid metab by liver, so short duration |
|
Anesthetics
|
CNS drugs must be lipid soluble to cross BBB or be actively transported
Decreased solubility in blood: rapid induction and recovery time Increased solubility in lipid = increased potency = 1/MAC MAC: min alveolar concentration at which 50% pop is anesthetized, varies with age N2O: low blood and lipid solubility, fast induction and low potency Halothane: high lipid and blood solubility, high potency, slow induction Mechanism: lungs: increase rate and depth of ventilation --> increased gas tension Blood: increased blood solubility = increase blood/gas partition coeff = increase solubility = increase gas required to saturate blood = SLOWER onset of action Tissue: increase AV concentration gradient = increase solubility = increase gas required to saturate tissue = slower onset |
|
Inhaled anesthetics
|
-ane
+ nitrous oxide effect: myocardial depression, resp depression, nausea/emesis, increase cerebral blood flow (decrease cerebral metabolic demand) tox: Halothane: hepatotox methoxyflurane: nephrotox Enflurane: seizures N2O: expansion of trapped gas malignant hyperthermia |

Local anesthetics
|
Esters: procaine, cocaine, tetracaine (1 I)
Amides: lidocaine, mepivacaine, bupivacaine (2 I's) BLock Na channels by binding to specific receptors on inner portion of channel -preferentially bind activated Na channels, so most effective in rapidly firing neurons tertiary amines penetrate membrane in uncharged form, then bind ion channels as charged form 1. infected (acidic) tissue, alkaline anesthetics are charged and cannot penetrate membrane effectively (more needed) 2. Orer of nerve blockade: small myelinated > small unmyelinated > large myelinated > large unmyelinated order of loss: pain > temp > touch > pressure 3. Except cocaine, given with vasoconstrictors (EPI) to enhance local action; decrease bleeding, increase anesthesia by decrease systemic concentration use: minor surgical procedures, spinal anesthesia Tox: CNS excitation, severe CV tox (bupivacaine), HTN, hypotension, arrhythmias (cocaine) |
