Sedative & Hypnotics
Sedative : Drugs that decrease activity, clam the p
atient and reduce anxiety without inducing sleep.
Hypnotic : Drugs that produce drowsiness, initiat
e and maintain the normal sleep.
Depress the function of the central nervous system (CNS) in a dose-dependent fashion: with dose increasing, progressively producing calming, sleep, anticonvulsant, unconsciousness, coma, surgical anesthesia, and death (barbiturates)
Physiology of sleepSleep can be divided into two phases based on EE
G and eye movement non-rapid eye movement sleep (NREMS )
slow wave sleep , SWSnightterror, sleepwalking
BDZ : stage 2, SWS
rapid eye movement sleep (REMS) 1.eyeballs keep moving fast, 50-60 times/min
2.EEG similar to that of awaking(fast brain wave)
3.Most dreaming occurs in this phase
NREMS 90min REMS 20 ~ 30minCycle 3 ~ 4 times a night
Barbiturates: REMS, if withdraw suddenly, reboundof REMS nightmare, insomnia dependence
Physiological significance of NREMSIn this phase the growth hormone secretion is increased significantly, so it is essential for body growing and can relief the body from fatigue
Physiological significance of REMSBrain activity is increasedPromote the development of brain functionConsolidation of memory and ensure the best brain functions
Chemical Classification of Drugs
1. Benzodiazepines ( BDZ ) don't lead general anesthesia, rarely result death
2. Barbiturates the older sedative-hypnotics, in large dose can lead to coma and death
3. Miscellaneous ( non BDZ non barbiturate drugs) Zolpidem Zaleplon
Ⅰ.Benzodiazepines
Derivatives of 1,4- benzodiazepines. About 20 agents are available for clinical use. They are basically similar in their pharmacological actions
Long-acting agents : T1/2>24hr Diazepam Nitrazepam Flurazepam
Middle-acting agents : T1/2 6-24hr Estazolam Lorazepam Oxazepam
Short-acting agents : T1/2<6hr Triazolam
ClassificationsAccording to Duration of Action :
Pharmacological actions
1. Anti-anxiety effect
2. Sedation and hypnosis
4. Central muscle relaxant effect
3. Anticonvalsant and antiseizure effects
1. Anti-anxiety effect high selectivity , small dose less than sedative
dose can significantly relieve symptoms such as nervous, depressive , frightened and insomnia
Mechanismselectively activate the BDZ receptor of limbic system and depress the firing of action potential of neurons in hippocampus and nucleus amygdalae
Diazepam is the first choice for anxiety
2. Sedation and hypnosis decrease sleep latency diminsh the number of awakings prolong the duration of sleeping
NREMS stage2
NREMS stage 3 and 4(SWS)
Advantages as hypnotics:(1) great margin of safety; without effect on r
espiration in normal subjects(2) little effect on REM sleep(3)Without inducing hepatic microsomal dru
g-metabolizing enzymes(4) slight physiologic and psychologic depende
nce and withdrawal syndrome(5) less adverse effects such as residual drowsi
ness and incoordination movement
3. Anticonvulsants and antiseizure effects
highly effective against chemically induced convulsions caused by leptazol
enhance GABA-mediated synaptic systems and inhibit excitatory transmission
Anticonvulsants: tetanus, eclampsia, febrile convulsion
Antiseizure: Diazepam, midazolam, and lorazepam for
status epilepticus
Clonazepam for myoclonic disorders
4. Central muscle relaxant effect
Clinical applications:muscle cramps , cerebral vascular accident , spinal cord injuries and lumbar muscle strain
Effect:
inhibitory effects on polysynaptic reflexes and internuncial transmission in CNS, leading to muscle relaxation
Mechanism:Mechanism:Promote GABA receptor functionPromote GABA receptor function
γ- butylamino acid, GABA GABA A receptor consists of
twoα1,two β2 and one γ2 subu
nits. GABA A receptor, which fu
nctions as a chloride ion chan
nel, is activated by the inhibit
ory neurotransmitter GABA .
GABA appears to interact
with αorβsubunits triggeri
ng chloride channel openin
g with resultant membrane
hyperpolarization.
The binding site for BDZs
(BDZ-receptor) is located
between αandγsubunit.
BDZs appear to increase the efficiency of GABAergic synaptic inhibition.
The enhancement in chloride ion conductance induced by the interaction of BDZs with GABA takes the form of an increase in the frequency of channel-opening events.
BZs can also increase the frequency of chloride channel opening, facilitate Cl- flowing into cell resulting membrane hyperpolarization
BZs promote GABA binding with GABA receptors chloride channels opening
chloride influx membrane hyperpolarization inhibition of propagation of action potential
inhibitory effect on different sites of the brain especially motor cortex, and limbic system.
Absorption, Fate, and Excretion
Highly lipophilic : absorbed rapidly and completely when administered orally and easily crosses the blood-brain and blood-placental barriers
More than 90% binding to plasma protein
Metabolized in the liver microsomal system , then glucuronide conjugated and excreted in the urine
Metabolites are active, with longer elimination Metabolites are active, with longer elimination half life than their parent drugshalf life than their parent drugs
Adverse effects : Therapeutic dose : drowsiness, dizziness , fatigue , memory decline
Large dose : ataxia (motor incoordination)
Overdose : coma
Long term use :tolerance , addiction
Drug Interactions
strengthen the inhibition of other central inhibitors (such as ethanol ,barbiturates) ,may cause severe depression, even death
Cause :diazepam + lorazepam + midazolam + propofol
Death of Michael Jackson
Contraindications
1.Old or individuals who suffer liver or kidney diseases
2.Glaucoma or myasthenia
3.Pregnant or Lactating women
Ⅱ.BARBITURATES
Classification
(1)Ultra-short-acting barbiturates: act within seconds, and their duration of action is 30min. Therapeutic use of Thiopental: anesthesia
(2)Short-acting barbiturates: have a duration of action of about 2h. The principal use of Secobarbital : sleep-inducing hypnotics.
Ⅱ.BARBITURATESClassification
(3)Intermediate-acting barbiturates: have and effect lasting 3-5h. The principal use of Amobarbital is as hypnotics.
(4)Long-acting barbiturates: have a duration of action greater than 6h. Such as Barbital and Phenobarbital. Therapeutic uses: hypnotics and sedative, and antiepileptic agents at low doses.
Pharmacological actions1. Sedation & hypnosisLow dose: sedation
Middle dose: hypnosis , shorten time to fall asleep , extend sleeping time
Long term use —— rebound phenomenon , dependence , addiction.
BARBITURATES
Barbiturates depress the CNS at all level in a dose-dependent fashion. Now it mainly used in anaesthesia and treatment of epilepsy; use as sedative-hypnotic agents is no longer recommended.
Disadvantage as hypnotics(1) have a narrow therapeutic-to-toxic dosage range.
(2) suppress REM sleep
(3) Tolerance develops relatively quickly
(4) have a high potential for physical dependence and ab
use.
(5) potent inducers of hepatic drug-metabolising enzyme
2. Anticonvulsant and antiepilepsia
strong action for tetanus , febrile convulsion, eclampsia , meningitis , encephalitis and convulsion caused by central stimulants .
3. Preanesthetic medication and anesthesia
Thiopental : intravenous anesthesia , induction of anesthesia .
Phenolbarbitol : anesthetic medication
Mechanism of action The centrol role is related to the activation of GA
BA receptors Barbiturates increase the permeability of Cl -chan
nel , leading to the cell membrane hyperpolarization . Different from BZs which increase the frequency of Cl- channel opening , barbiturates mainly prolong the Cl- channel opening time .
In addition, barbiturates can weaken or block the glumatic acid's exciting effect and inhibit the CNS .
Pharmacokinetics High lipid solubility allows rapid transport acr
oss the blood-brain barrier and results in a short onset.
Removal from the brain occurs via redistribution to the other tissues results in short duration of action (thiopental)
Barbiturates and their metabolites excreted by the renal r. Alkalinization of the urine expedites the excretion of barbiturates. Treatment of acute overdosage: Sodium bicarbonate.
Adverse effects
After effect: hangover---dizzy, drowsiness, amnesia, impaired judgment, disorientation.
Tolerance: decreased responsiveness to a drug following repeated exposure because of down-regulation of receptors and induction of hepatic drug-metabolising enzymes
Dependence: including psychologic and physiologic dependence. Withdrawal symptoms: excitation, insomnia, tremor, anxiety, hallucinations and sometimes convulsions
Treatment of acute overdosage 10 times of hypnosis dose can result in deep c
oma, severe respiratory depression, hypotension leading to cardiovascular collapse, and renal failure.
Treatment:
(1) supporting respiration and circulation
(2) Gastric lavage , alkalinizing the urine by sodium bicarbonate
(3) Hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis.
Newer sedative/hypnotic drugsBuspirone
Partial agonist at the serotonin receptor
Relieves anxiety without producing sedation, impairment of motor skills, or memory loss
Does not induce withdrawal symptoms upon discontinuation
Does not act immediately Can take up to 1 week to become effective Used for chronic anxiety states
Zolpidem Produces sedative properties by binding selectively t
o GABA receptor Same site that also binds benzodiazepines. Evidence – pharmacological effects blocked by fl
umazenil. Structurally unrelated to benzodiazepines.
Only hypnotic effect, used clinically for treatment of insomnia. Minimal muscle relaxing and anticonvulsant effec
ts. Less potential for dependence and withdrawal.
