Interaksi Flumazenil dan Zolpidem

The use of Zolpidem Tartrate with other sedative-hypnotics (including other zolpidem products) at bedtime or the middle of the night is not recommended.

CNS-Depressant Effects: Impaired alertness and motor coordination, including risk of morning impairment.

Risk increases with dose and use with other CNS depressants and alcohol.

Postmarketing reports have shown that complex sleep behaviors may occur with Zolpidem Tartrate alone at recommended doses, with or without the concomitant use of alcohol or other central nervous system (CNS) depressants [see Drug Interactions (7.1) ] .

Additive effects occur with concomitant use of other CNS depressants (e.g., benzodiazepines, opioids, tricyclic antidepressants, alcohol), including daytime use [see Drug Interactions (7.1) ] .

Possible risk factors for seizures include: concurrent major sedative-hypnotic drug withdrawal, recent therapy with repeated doses of parenteral benzodiazepines, myoclonic jerking or seizure activity prior to flumazenil administration in overdose cases, or concurrent cyclic antidepressant poisoning.

…reactions in patients who have been taking benzodiazepines on a regular basis, it is particularly important that physicians query patients or their guardians carefully about benzodiazepine, alcohol and sedative use as part of the history prior to any procedure in which the use of flumazenil is planned (see PRECAUTIONS : Use in Drug- and Alcohol-Dependent Patients ).

Drug Interactions Interaction with central nervous system depressants other than benzodiazepines has not been specifically studied; however, no deleterious interactions were seen when flumazenil was administered after narcotics, inhalational anesthetics, muscle relaxants and muscle relaxant antagonists administered in conjunction with sedation or anesthesia.

…patient should be instructed, preferably in writing, that their memory and judgment may be impaired and specifically advised: Not to engage in any activities requiring complete alertness, and not to operate hazardous machinery or a motor vehicle during the first 24 hours after discharge, and it is certain no residual sedative effects of the benzodiazepine remain.
