- 1. Sedative- Hypnotic drugs Dr.Maham Israr
- 2. Sedative /anxiolytic drugs Thedrugs which reduce anxiety and exert a calming effect Hypnotic drug Drug which produce drowsiness and encourage the onset and maintenance of a state of sleep.

- 8. Pharmacokinetic Route :Oral or I/V Lipid solubility : Sufficient Absorption from GIT : Well Plasma protein binding : Not significant Crosses placenta Secreted in breast milk Biotransformation BDZ compounds Phase : microsomal oxidation (N-dealkylation and Ⅰ aliphatic hydroxylation) Phase : Glucuronides Ⅱ Don’t induce enzymes
- 10. Directly conjugated withoutmetabolism Estazolam Lorazepam Temazepam Triazolam Short acting, don't accumulate, safe in liver failure and in elderly
- 11. Barbiturates Phase: oxidation by hepatic enzymes to form Ⅰ alcohols, acids, and ketones Phase : Glucuronides Ⅱ Induce hepatic enzymes Newer hypnotics Zolpidem metabolized by hepatic CYP3A4. Zaleplon is metabolized by hepatic aldehyde oxidase and partly by the cytochrome P450 isoform CYP3A4.
- 12. Eszopiclone ismetabolized by hepatic cytochromes P450 (especially CYP3A4) The orexin receptor antagonist suvorexant is also a substrate of CYP3A4 Excretion Renal
- 14. GABA Receptor Heterogeneity α1 subunits in GABA sedation, amnesia, and ataxic effects α2 and α3 subunits are involved in their anxiolytic and muscle-relaxing actions α5 memory impairment
- 15. GAB Benzodiazepines Barbiturates Newer hypnotics (eg, zolpidem) Alcohol Intravenous anesthetics (etomidate, propofol) Halothane Vigabatrin Tiagabine Picrotoxin Bicuculline Flumazenil β-carbolines GAB Baclofen
- 16. MOA BDZ Increase in the frequency Cl channel-opening events Hyperpolarization CNS depression
- 17. MOA Barbiturates GABA- ergicinhibition increase in the duration GABA- mimetic directly activates GABA channel Inhibit Glutamate, Aspartate Barbiturates also exert nonsynaptic membrane effects Induce full surgical anesthesia More pronounced central depressant effects
- 18. Organ Level Effects 1.Sedation Calming effect with reduction of anxiety Euphoria Impaired judgment Disinhibition of punishment suppressed behaviour Loss of self control Dose dependent anterograde amnesia
- 19. 2. Hypnosis thelatency of sleep onset is decreased the duration of stage 2 NREM sleep is increased the duration of REM sleep is decreased the duration of stage 4 NREM slow-wave sleep is decreased. 3. Anesthesia Stage III of general anesthesia Barbiturates thiopental and methohexital BDZ diazepam, lorazepam, and midazolam
- 20. 4. Anti-convulsion Inhibit thedevelopment and spread of epileptiform electrical activity in CNS clonazepam, nitrazepam, lorazepam, midazolam, clobazam, clorazepate, and diazepam 5. Muscle relaxation inhibitory effects on polysynaptic reflexes and internuncial transmission at high doses may also depress transmission at the skeletal neuromuscular junction
- 21. 6. Cardio-respiratory system Depressionof the medullary respiratory center and cvs collapse at toxic dose and in patients with pulmonary dysfunction and hear failure.
- 22. Clinical uses ofSedative-hypnotic
- 23. TREATMENT OF ANXIETYSTATES Acute anxiety states Rapid control of panic attacks Panic disorders and agoraphobia Alprazolam CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY OF SEDATIVE-HYPNOTICS
- 24. TREATMENT OF SLEEPPROBLEMS Abrupt discontinuance of many drugs in this class can lead to rebound insomnia Benzodiazepines cause a dose-dependent decrease in both REM and slow-wave sleep The newer hypnotics are less likely to change sleep patterns.
- 25. Premedication priorto anesthesia Withdrawal from physiologic dependence on ethanol or other sedative-hypnotics phenobarbital To suppress the symptoms of delirium tremens Parenteral lorazepam Relaxant effects in skeletal muscle spasticity of central origin diazepam
- 26. Initial managementof mania control of drug-induced hyperexcitability states (eg, phencyclidine intoxication) Drugs used in the management of seizure disorders and as intravenous agents in anesthesia
- 27. Indications of barbiturates Induction of GA Congenital hyperbilirubinaemia In epilepsies (phenobarbitone) Emergency treatment in convulsions Narcoanalysis and Narcotherapy Sedation and hypnosis Ethanol withdrawal states
- 28. Adverse effectsof BDZ a. within therapeutic dose Hangover effect Somnolence Lethargy Drowsiness Impaired judgment Diminished motor skill Anterograde amnesia
- 29. In larger doses Cardiac failure Resp centre depression May cause total memory loss, in long term use Rhambdomyolysis Serious aggressive behaviour Other Rebound insomnia Addiction (Psychological and physical) Abnormal sleepiness of breastfed baby Development of tolerance BDZ Downregulation of GABA receptor Pharmacodynamic tolerance Barbiturate Induce hepatic drug metabolizing enzyme Pharmacokinetic tolerance
- 30. Contraindication Cardiac failure Pulmonary insufficiency COPD Symptomatic sleep apnea Acute intermittent porphyria , variegate porphyria, hereditary porphyria barbiturate
- 31. CNS depressionwhen administered with other drugs, alcoholic beverages, opioid analgesics, anticonvulsants, Phenothiazines, antihistamines, antihypertensive agents, and antidepressant drugs of the tricyclic class. Interactions involving changes in the activity of hepatic drug-metabolizing enzyme systems. Drug interaction
- 32. NEWER HYPNOTICS Zopiclone Eszopiclone Zaleplon Zolpidem subtype of GABA ꞷ MOA Bind selectively to a subgroup of GAB receptors, acting like benzodiazepines to enhance membrane hyperpolarization. Effects Rapid onset of hypnosis with few amnestic effects or day after psychomotor depression or somnolence
