PHARMACOLOGY
Phenobarbital, like many other barbiturates, is a nonselective central
nervous system (CNS)
depressant, capable of producing all degrees of depression from mild
sedation and hypnosis to
general anesthesia, deep coma and death. The extent of CNS depression
varies with the route of
administration, dose and pharmacokinetic characteristics of the
particular barbiturates. Patient
specific factors such as age, physical or emotional state and the
concomitant use of other drugs
will also affect response.
The mechanism of action of phenobarbital is not completely known.
Phenobarbital may act by
enhancing and/or mimicking the synaptic action of gamma-aminobutyric
acid (GABA), an
inhibitory neurotransmitter. The sedative-hypnotic action of
phenobarbital may be due to an
inhibition of conduction in the reticular formation resulting in a
decrease in the number of
impulses reaching the cerebral cortex.
Anticonvulsant activity may result from a reduction in CNS synaptic
transmission and an
increase in the threshold for electrical stimulation of the motor
cortex. Phenobarbital is the only
barbiturate with anticonvulsant activity at subhypnotic doses.
The therapeutic index of barbiturates, such as phenobarbital, is
narrow. Therefore, the use of
phenobarbital is almost always accompanied by some degree of
impairment of cognitive
function. Supratherapeutic doses lead to marked mental and motor
impairment. In some patients
(especially children and the elderly), drowsiness may be paradoxically
preceded by tr
