Profound hypotension after the first dose of ketanserin.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Two patients developed profound hypotension approximately one hour after taking an initial oral dose of ketanserin 40 mg. The reaction appeared similar to that reported with prazosin, and may have been due to the alpha 1-adrenoceptor antagonist action of ketanserin. Both patients were taking regular beta-blocker therapy, which may exacerbate such a reaction.

In the present study, the effect of 5-HT2A receptor blockers in CA1 region of rat hippocampus on spatial learning was assessed in a T-maze, a spatial discrimination task. Rats were canulated bilaterally and injected daily vehicle (saline), 5-HT2A-selective antagonist, ketanserin (0.6, 1.2 or 2.4 µg/0.5 µl) and pirenperone (0.1, 0.3, 1.2 or 2.4 µg/0.5 µl) into the cannula 30 minutes before train...
متن کاملThe Effect of Prophylactic Infusion of Combined Ephedrin and Phenylephrine on Maternal Hemodynamic after Spinal Anesthesia for Cesarean Section: A Randomized Clinical Trial
Several techniques have been proposed to prevent hypotension in obstetric patients. Ephedrine and phenylephrine are individually used to prevent maternal hypotension; however, each has its own drawbacks. Some researchers have reported that the infusion of combined ephedrine and phenylephrine immediately after spinal anesthesia for cesarean delivery reduces the incidence of maternal hypotension....
متن کاملFluoxetine Induced Hypotension; a Rare Report
Fluoxetine is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) that exerts its anti-depressive effect by blocking the presynaptic reuptake of the neurotransmitter serotonin (5-HT). Although fluoxetine is usually considered safe for most patients, in the present case report, we describe a young patient with mixed anxiety and depression disorder (MADD) treated with fluoxetine 10 mg/day, who develo...

متن کاملHypotensive Spinal Serotonergic Effect
Since previous data obtained in anesthetized rats supported the idea that the activation of spinal serotonergic receptors induced a hypotensive effect, it was decided to characterize more closely the serotonergic spinal involvement and to elucidate the serotonergic receptor type involved in this effect. After female Wistar rats were anesthetized, the femoral artery (for blood pressure measureme...
