phenobarbital and Nutrition Disorders

phenobarbital has been researched along with Nutrition Disorders in 7 studies

Phenobarbital: A barbituric acid derivative that acts as a nonselective central nervous system depressant. It potentiates GAMMA-AMINOBUTYRIC ACID action on GABA-A RECEPTORS, and modulates chloride currents through receptor channels. It also inhibits glutamate induced depolarizations.
phenobarbital : A member of the class of barbiturates, the structure of which is that of barbituric acid substituted at C-5 by ethyl and phenyl groups.

Nutrition Disorders: Disorders caused by nutritional imbalance, either overnutrition or undernutrition.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" Based on the available data it seems that one may postulate the following conclusions: (1) that the distribution factors as well as changes in drug elimination capacities seem to play a role, perhaps with differing relative importance, during each of the maturational periods; (2) that the physicochemical properties of a drug and its dosage, as well as changes in the volume of distribution in children, in the course of certain disease states may have a significant effect on kinetics of drug disposition in the body; (3) that systemic clearance, a model independent parameter, rather than elimination half-life, a hybrid pharmacokinetic parameter, more accurately reflects elimination of some drugs from the body; (4) that each drug and every clinical situation may require the evaluation of the direct effect on pharmacokinetic processes, since general principles may not always apply; (5) that drug disposition studies should also be performed, if possible, on patients under actual clinical situations and receiving the usual therapeutic regime, and (6) that the half-life of colistin is independent of postnatal age which should serve as a warning not to generalize about drug excretion in the young infant."2.37Clinical pharmacokinetics of changes in drug elimination in children.
