Name : D
Description
There is positive evidence of human fetal risk based on adverse reaction data from investigational or marketing experience or studies in humans, but potential benefits may warrant use of the drug in pregnant women despite potential risks.Mode of Action
Alprazolam binds to stereospecific benzodiazepine receptors on the postsynaptic GABA neuron at several sites w/in the CNS, including the limbic system, reticular formation. Enhancement of the inhibitory effect of GABA on neuronal excitability results by increased neuronal membrane permeability to Cl ions, which results in hyperpolarisation (a less excitable state) and stabilisation. Benzodiazepine receptors and effects appear to be linked to the GABA-A receptors.Interaction
Potentiates action of alcohol and CNS depressants. Reduced conc with cigarette smoking by 50%. Potentially Fatal: Cimetidine and fluoxetine reduce the clearance of alprazolam. Alprazolam enhances activity of imipramine and desipramine.Pregnancy Category Note
Pregnancy category: D Lactation: Enters breast milk/not recommended Minor tranquilizers should be avoided in first trimester of pregnancy due to increased risk of congenital malformations Maternal use shortly before delivery is associated with floppy infant syndrome (good and consistent evidence) Prenatal benzodiazepine exposure slightly increases oral cleft risk (limited or inconsistent evidence)Adult Dose
