Comment. If we are to believe this study, then there is indeed a dose-dependent correlation between alcohol abuse and paradoxical excitement response in patients sedated with propofol. The authors (and other before them) suggest this has to to with genetic variations of the GABA-receptors.
Medical Attention for a Painkiller Overdose. A known or suspected painkiller overdose is a medical emergency that requires immediate assistance. Contact your local emergency number or 9-1-1 to get help. Tell the paramedics how much of the drug was ingested and the time in which it was ingested.
A transient ischemic attack (TIA) happens when blood flow to part of the brain is blocked or reduced, often by a blood clot. After a short time, blood flows again and the symptoms go away. With a stroke, the blood flow stays blocked, and the brain has permanent damage.Some people call a TIA a mini-stroke, because the symptoms are those of a stroke but don't last long. A TIA is a warning: it means you are likely to have a stroke in the future.If you think you are having a TIA, call 911 or other emergency services right away.Early treatment can help prevent a stroke.ome people call a TIA a mini-stroke, because the symptoms are those of a stroke but don't last long.
