Materials and methods Our research took place in a private psychiatric clinic (2005-2009) and focused on the effectiveness of a certain pharmacological combination administered to a sample of 37 patients, in an attempt to control the alcohol withdrawal syndrome. The pharmacological combination comprised 30mg-60mg Chlordiazepoxide hydrochloride, 300mg-500mg Triapride hydrochloride, 300mg-500mg H...

Twelve patients acted successfully as subjects to study what effect if any the benzodiazepines nitrazepam, diazepam, oxazepam, and chlordiazepoxide might have on steady-state plasma levels of nortriptyline and amitriptyline. No significant detectable effect was discovered. In view of the known interaction effects of other alternative tranquillizing drugs and hypnotics it seems reasonable to cho...

Hyperphagia was induced in mice by p.o. administration of different types of CNS depressant drugs, like chlordiazepoxide 25 mg/kg diazepam 2.5 mg/kg, cyproheptadine 2 mg/kg and phenobarbitone 25 mg/kg. Such hyperphagia was abolished by pretreatment with naloxone 0.1 mg/kg sc. Naloxone per se at this dose produced no significant effect on the food intake. This is suggestive of the role of peptid...

THIS review will treat the more commonly prescribed hypnotic agents and their sleep-inducing properties. Hypnotic agents that are seldom used (paraldehyde), drugs that are not singularly soporific but may be used either alone or as adjuncts in inducing sleep [e.g. meprobamate (Equanil, Miltown), chlordiazepoxide (Librium) and diazepam (Valium)] and drugs that have little soporific effect [antih...

Using [3H]diazepam binding, high concentrations of receptors were found in the frontal cortex and lateral amygdala. Infusions of chlordiazepoxide into the lateral amygdala induced a release of responding measured during the component of a conditioned emotional response task previously associated with an aversive stimulus. The lateral amygdala appears to be an important component of the forebrai...
