  • MEDICATION GUIDE Estazolam (Es-TAZE-Oh-Lam)
    MEDICATION GUIDE Estazolam (es-TAZE-oh-lam) Tablets, C-IV What is the most important information I should know about estazolam? • Estazolam is a benzodiazepine medicine. Taking benzodiazepines with opioid medicines, alcohol, or other central nervous system depressants (including street drugs) can cause severe drowsiness, breathing problems (respiratory depression), coma and death. • After taking estazolam, you may get up out of bed while not being fully awake and do an activity that you do not know you are doing. The next morning, you may not remember that you did anything during the night. You have a higher chance for doing these activities if you drink alcohol or take other medicines that make you sleepy with estazolam. Reported activities include: ◦ driving a car ("sleep-driving") ◦ making and eating food ◦ talking on the phone ◦ having sex ◦ sleep-walking Call your healthcare provider right away if you find out that you have done any of the above activities after taking estazolam. • Do not take estazolam unless you are able to stay in bed a full night (7 to 8 hours) before you must be active again. • Do not take more estazolam than prescribed. What is estazolam? • Estazolam is a prescription medicine used short-term to treat certain types of insomnia including difficulty falling asleep, waking up often during the night, or waking up early in the morning. • Estazolam is a federal controlled substance (C-IV) because it can be abused or lead to dependence. Keep estazolam in a safe place to prevent misuse and abuse. Selling or giving away estazolam may harm others, and is against the law.

    Organic Chemistry I Laboratory Extraction and Evaporation: Experiment 1 Separating the Components of a Mixture1 Week 1 Background Reading Zubrick, J. W. The Organic Chem Lab Survival Manual, 4th edition, Wiley & Sons, Inc., New York, 1997. Keeping a Notebook: Pg 12-24. Interpreting Handbooks: Pg 26-31, 34-44. Extraction and Washing: Pg 148-168. Background Senario One of the many places organic chemists are employed is in private laboratories associated with consulting firms. The purpose of these labs is generally to provide chemical analysis or synthesis of material for customers. The first few labs in CHM 220 will teach you the basic techniques needed to analyze and purify mixtures to determine the individual components. This first lab will involve determining the composition of a possible pharmaceutical preparation. Watchdog agencies exist which monitor the pharmaceuticals sold over the counter in the United States. These agencies will use private laboratory firms to analyze products suspected of violating enforced standards. For example, a new brand of analgesic may appear on drugstore shelves at a low price. The label indicates that the tablets were manufactured in the United States by a legitimate pharmaceutical company. However, the labels may reveal discrepancies and the appearance/quality of the tablets could lead an investigator to suspect that they might be counterfeit. Such knockoffs of a domestic product can be manufactured cheaply elsewhere and smuggled into the US, where they are sold for high profits. This laboratory exercise places you in the position of analyzing a suspected counterfeit analgesic preparation. The label on the suspected bottle lists the ingredients per tablet as aspirin (200 mg), acetaminophen (250 mg), and sucrose (50 mg).

These drugs are used to reduce anxiety and insomnia without drowsiness. The depressants cause relaxed feeling if used in small quantity but cause unconsciousness, vomiting and even death if taken in high quantity. It affects concentration and coordination of a person by slowing down his/ her ability to respond in unexpected situations. These drugs are also attributed for their physiological and psychological effects, eventually in large dose it become lethal. The different 142 SMU Medical Journal, Volume – 4, No. – 1, January, 2017 physical and chemical features of some very often used depressants are discussed in this manuscript. Keyword: Depressant, TLC, UV spectroscopy, HPLC, GLC etc. Introduction The classical depressants are hypnotics (which induce sleep), most antianxiety medicine (diazepam or valium), muscle spasm prevent seizure, but these drugs rapidly develop dependence and tolerance which finally leads to coma and death, so use of these drugs is highly unsafe.

  • Effects of Brotizolam, a New Thieno-Triazolo-Diazepine Derivative, on the Central Nervous System
    In the present study, its actions on the central nervous system were investigated. Effects of Brotizolam, a New Thieno-Triazolo-Diazepine Derivative, on the Central Nervous System Kenjiro KIMISHIMA, Kyoko TANABE, Yukako KINOSHITA, Kooji TOKUYOSHI, Daisuke HOURI and Tatsuo KOBAYASHI Department of Pharmacology, Tottori University School of Medicine, Yonago 683, Japan Accepted August 24, 1984 Abstract-The effects of brotizolam, a new thieno-triazolo-diazepine derivative, on the central nervous system were analyzed in mice, rats and rabbits. Diazepam, estazolam and triazolam were used as control drugs. Brotizolam inhibited spon taneous motor activities; performances in the rotarod test, staircase test, and maximal electroshock seizure test; and pentetrazol or bemegride-induced convulsion. Moreover, catalepsy inducing action and potentiating effect on sleep elicited by pentobarbital or ethanol were observed. Following intraperitoneal or oral admin istration of brotizolam to rabbits with chronically implanted electrodes , the electro encephalographic profile in spontaneous EEG was characterized by slow waves with high amplitudes in the neocortex. The arousal responses by stimulation of the midbrain reticular formation and posterior hypothalamus were slightly inhibited, but the recruiting responses induced by stimulation of the diffuse thalamic projecting system were not inhibited, and seizure discharges induced by stimulation of the dorsal hippocampus were inhibited markedly. When motor activities and pente trazol-induced convulsions were observed as indices of tolerance for brotizolam, tolerance was not developed by repeated administration of brotizolam up to 14 days. These results suggested that brotizolam, a new thieno-triazolo-diazepine derivative, is judged to be a safer and stronger sleep inducer than diazepam and estazolam .
