Drug Interactions
Los medicamentos que afectan el sistema nervioso central (como barbitúricos, fenotiazinas, antidepresivos y IMAO) pueden aumentar los efectos en el cerebro cuando se toman juntos. La escopolamina puede provocar más sueño y también provocar alucinaciones o comportamientos inusuales. La cafeína, la teofilina o la aminofilina pueden hacer que los medicamentos sedantes y reductores de la ansiedad sean menos efectivos. Tomar escopolamina con valproato de sodio o probenecid puede aumentar la cantidad del medicamento en la sangre.
Contraindications
Problemas hepáticos graves, dificultad para respirar, glaucoma agudo de ángulo estrecho y estar embarazada o amamantando.
Mode of actions
Lorazepam es un medicamento de acción rápida de la familia de las benzodiazepinas. Funciona uniéndose a receptores específicos de las células nerviosas del cerebro, especialmente en áreas como el sistema límbico y la formación reticular. Esta acción aumenta el flujo de iones de cloruro hacia las células, lo que potencia los efectos calmantes de una sustancia química cerebral llamada GABA. Como resultado, las células nerviosas se vuelven más estables y es menos probable que se vuelvan hiperactivas.

Insomnio asociado con ansiedad 1-4 mg/día antes de acostarse.
