3. | Used for status epilepticus - a medical emergency |
4. | An excitatory neurotransmitter |
6. | Used to reduce the hyperstimulation that is caused by excessive acetylcholine. |
9. | Three types of medications used for inc. ICP are hyperosmolar diuretics, anticonvulsants and ______________ |
10. | These drugs act by increasing the seizure threshold and regulating neuronal firing by inhibiting excitatory processes or enhancing inhibitory processes |
12. | An antiepileptic, analgesic and antimanic agent. Related to the tricyclic antidepresants. |
13. | A dopamine antagonist that can cause drug induced Parkinson's. |
14. | This antiepileptic is associated with many drug interactions |
15. | Used for generalized tonic-clonic and myoclonic seizures. Causes sedation, behavior changes and hepatic failure |
16. | Used for seizure control and Fibromyalgia |
19. | Increasing systolic BP with decreasing diastolic BP- Increased ICP |
20. | Unequal pupils |
21. | Combination therapy with Levodopa and this drug is successful in controlling Parkinsonism. |
22. | Used for the treatment of seizures. Toxic effect includes respiratory depression, ataxia, hypotension |
23. | Toxic effects include nystagmus, fever, lymphadenopathy. |
24. | Reduces the metabolism of dopamine in the brain- allowing for greater dopaminergic activity |
