Plasma concentrations of clonazepam after single rectal administration.
Clonazepam was administered rectally to six children aged 1.4 to 4.7 years in a dose of 0.05 mg/kg and to five children aged 1.4 to 4.1 years in a dose of 0.1 mg/kg. Plasma concentrations indicate that it is rapidly absorbed, and it may therefore be an alternative to rectal administration of diazepam in continuing convulsions.
متن کاملCharacterization of early plasma concentrations of midazolam in pigs after administration by an autoinjector.
The treatment of organophosphate-induced poisoning is based mainly on atropine and an oxime. Prompt anticonvulsive intervention is usually also required to terminate the ensuing seizure activity and to prevent delayed permanent brain damage. Midazolam, a water-soluble benzodiazepine agonist, has the advantage of rapid absorption following intramuscular administration. In mass casualty situation...
متن کاملSimilar excitation after sevoflurane anaesthesia in young children given rectal morphine or midazolam as premedication.
BACKGROUND Sevoflurane is a rapid-acting volatile anaesthetic agent frequently used in paediatric anaesthesia despite transient postoperative symptoms of cerebral excitation, particularly in preschool children. This randomised and investigator-blinded study was designed to evaluate whether premedication with an opioid might reduce non-divertible postoperative excitation more than premedication ...
متن کاملEvaluation of plasma levels of melatonin after midazolam or sodium thiopental anesthesia in children.
Midazolam and sodium thiopental are two commonly used drugs in anesthesia for minor surgical procedures in children. A relationship exists between benzodiazepines (BNZ), barbiturates and melatonin. Whereas these drugs increase pineal melatonin production, the indoleamine amplifies the effects of both BNZ and barbiturates on the central nervous system (CNS). Our purpose was thus to analyze the p...
متن کاملComparative plasma concentration profiles after i.v., i.m. and rectal administration of pethidine in children.
Plasma concentration-time curves of pethidine and norpethidine were studied in 25 children allocated after operation to three groups to receive pethidine 1 mg kg-1 i.v., i.m. or rectally. Peak concentrations occurred after 5 +/- 1, 10 +/- 2, and 60 +/- 10 min, respectively, while the maximum concentrations amounted to 2800 +/- 462, 1609 +/- 367 and 531 +/- 179 nmol litre-1, respectively. The ar...
