WHAT DOES BARBITURATE POISONING MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Barbiturate overdose

A barbiturate overdose results when a person takes a larger-than-prescribed dose of barbiturates. Symptoms of an overdose typically include sluggishness, incoordination, difficulty in thinking, slowness of speech, faulty judgment, drowsiness, shallow breathing, and staggering. In severe cases, coma and death can result. The lethal dosage of barbiturates varies greatly with tolerance and from one individual to another. Barbiturate overdose with other CNS depressants, such as alcohol, opiates or benzodiazepines, is even more dangerous due to additive CNS and respiratory depressant effects. In the case of benzodiazepines, barbiturates also increase the binding affinity of the benzodiazepine binding sites thus leading to an exaggerated effect of benzodiazepines. This makes the predicting the effect of combinations difficult and the same dose of the same drugs will not always produce the same degree of sedation and respiratory depression as the previous experience. Benzodiazepines increase the frequency of chloride channel opening while barbiturates increase the duration that the chloride pore remains open.
