Resumo

Brexanolone causes dose-related sedation and sudden loss of consciousness, and other CNS depressants such as diazepam may add to these effects. The combination increases the risk of excessive sedation and impaired responsiveness during the infusion.

O que esta interação significa em palavras simples

Brexanolone and Diazepam can interact in a way that may be serious. Using them together is sometimes necessary, but it needs a deliberate decision by the prescriber, a plan for monitoring, and clear advice on the warning signs to watch for.

Nível de evidência: Moderate
