Definitions
• Sedative-hypnotic agents produce varying degrees of CNS depression (depending on dose)• Small dose: sedation (reduction of activity and simple
anxiety)• Larger dose of the same drug: hypnotic dose (sleeping)• Even larger doses: anesthesia or death

Mechanism of ActionADME

Mechanism of Action
• Activity of brain dependent on action of NTs that can either stimulate or inhibit activity• Inhibiting neurotransmitter in CNS = GABA (Gamma-
aminobutyric acid)• When GABA released, binds to own receptors located on
neuron membranes• Action: ↑ influx Cl ions which will reduce action
potentials & keep cell in HYPERPOLARIZED state• 50% of inhibition of brain/spinal column
“Lady GABA doesn’t excite me!”

Benzodiazepines• Drug of choice for short-term tx of anxiety disorders
• Do NOT use more than 2-6mo – dependency, tolerance will develop quickly
• Long-term tx anxiety/depression: anti-psychotics (CH17)• Drugs end in ~lam & ~pam• Wide margin of safety: less likely to OD
• Tx OD with antagonist: flumazenil (Romazicon) Benzo antagonist

BenzodiazepinesMechanism of Action
• Increase action of GABA• Benzo’s bind to their own receptors that are
part of the GABA network • GABA + Benzo = ↑ Cl channel openings which
also ↑ hyperpolarization of the nerve
![Page 15: DH206 Pharmacology Chapter 11: Antianxiety Agents Lisa Mayo, RDH, BSDH Copyright © 2011, 2007 Mosby, Inc., an affiliate of Elsevier. All rights reserved.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062500/5697bfd51a28abf838cad411/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

Benzodiazepines
Adverse Reactions• Wider margin safety than Barb’s (NBQ)• Anterograde amnesia• CNS depression (sedation is dose-related)• Dental effects
• Xerostomia• Swollen tongue• Bitter or metallic taste
Drug Interactions• Metabolized by P-450 enzymes – many drug interactions• Avoid alcohol & smoking (intensify effects & ↑ risk for
toxicity)

a. Reversal of schizophreniab. Cause relaxation of the skeletal musclesc. Are analgesic in natured. Are useful in treating attention deficit hyperactivity disorder

Barbiturates
• Original sedative-hypnotic agent• Benzo’s replaced barb’s for tx of anxiety & sleep
disturbances• Narrow TI• More adverse effects – death with OD due to respiratory
depression
USESHypnotic ( Causes hangover the next day unlike benzo’s)
Anticonvulsant: PhenobarbitalPre-op for anxiety/sedation
![Page 22: DH206 Pharmacology Chapter 11: Antianxiety Agents Lisa Mayo, RDH, BSDH Copyright © 2011, 2007 Mosby, Inc., an affiliate of Elsevier. All rights reserved.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062500/5697bfd51a28abf838cad411/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Copyright © 2011, 2007 Mosby, Inc., an affiliate of Elsevier. All rights reserved.
Barbiturates
• Mechanism of action: Same as benzo’s• Respiratory depression greater• Metabolism: very slow – prolong their actions
• P450 enzyme inducers like benzo (many drug interactions)
• Drugs very addicting• Trying to quit “cold turkey” very dangerous
(cardiac arrest)

NBQThe brief duration of general anesthetic action of an ultra-short-acting barbiturate is due to what factor?
a. Rapid rate of metabolism in the liverb. Low lipid solubility, resulting in a minimal concentration in the brainc. High degree of binding to plasma proteinsd. Rapid rate of redistribution from the brain to the peripheral tissuese. Slow rate of excretion by the kidneys

General Comments
Special considerations• Patients who use antianxiety agents should be driven to and
from the dental appointment• Drugs are not a substitute for patient management • Drugs should not be substituted for patient psychological
approach
