acetazolamide and Acidosis, Lactic

acetazolamide has been researched along with Acidosis, Lactic in 3 studies

Acetazolamide: One of the CARBONIC ANHYDRASE INHIBITORS that is sometimes effective against absence seizures. It is sometimes useful also as an adjunct in the treatment of tonic-clonic, myoclonic, and atonic seizures, particularly in women whose seizures occur or are exacerbated at specific times in the menstrual cycle. However, its usefulness is transient often because of rapid development of tolerance. Its antiepileptic effect may be due to its inhibitory effect on brain carbonic anhydrase, which leads to an increased transneuronal chloride gradient, increased chloride current, and increased inhibition. (From Smith and Reynard, Textbook of Pharmacology, 1991, p337)

Acidosis, Lactic: Acidosis caused by accumulation of lactic acid more rapidly than it can be metabolized. It may occur spontaneously or in association with diseases such as DIABETES MELLITUS; LEUKEMIA; or LIVER FAILURE.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Acetazolamide can produce severe lactic acidosis with an increased lactate-to-pyruvate ratio, ketosis with a low beta-hydroxybutyrate-to-acetoacetate ratio, and a urinary organic acid profile typical of pyruvate carboxylase deficiency."3.71Pathogenic mechanism, prophylaxis, and therapy of symptomatic acidosis induced by acetazolamide. ( Bagnoli, F; Filippi, L; Margollicci, M; Rubaltelli, FF; Tronchin, M; Zammarchi, E, 2002)
"The clinical symptoms in MELAS are not the result of a mitochondrial angiopathy but are the consequences of a mitochondrial cytopathy affecting neurons or glia."2.69Cerebral blood flow and glucose metabolism in mitochondrial disorders. ( Diószeghy, P; Gulyás, B; Mechler, F; Molnár, MJ; Molnár, S; Trón, L; Valikovics, A, 2000)
