Anti-Convulsants
Phenobarbital: Potentiates GABA activity
Pregabalin: Potentiates the release of GABA
Gabapentin: Potentiates the release of GABA
Opioid Analgesic
Fentanyl : Strong agonists at opioid receptors
Morphine : : Strong agonists at opioid receptors
Tramadol : Weak agonists at opioid receptors
Non-Opioid Analgesic
Paracetamol
Central Nervous System Stimulants
Status Epilepticus
Clonazepam: Potentiates GABA activity
Diazepam: Potentiates GABA activity
General/Partial Seizure
Perampanel
Mood Stabilizer
Lithium: Alters cation transport across the cell membrane and influences reuptake of
serotonin and/or norepinephrine; second messenger systems involving the
phosphatidylinositol cycle are inhibited; postsynaptic D2 receptor supersensitivity is
inhibited.
General Anesthetic
Propofol

Clorazepate: (Long-acting benzodiazipines)
Allosteric agonist of GABAA receptors that increase the frequency of chloride channel
opening
Benzodiazepine Sedative-Hypnotic
Midazolam: (Short-acting)
Allosteric agonist of GABAA receptors that increase the frequency of chloride channel
opening
Bromazepam
Alprazolam: (Intermediate-acting)
Allosteric agonist of GABAA receptors that increase the frequency of chloride channel
opening
Diazepam: (Long-acting)
Allosteric agonist of GABAA receptors that increase the frequency of chloride channel
opening
Sedative-Hypnotic
Dissociative Anesthetic
Ketamine:
Anti-Psychotic Phenothiazine
Chlorpromazepine: Therapeutic effect due to blocking D2 and 5-HT2 receptors; many
adverse effects associated with blocking a adrenergic, muscarinic and histaminic receptors
Anti-Parkinsons
Carbidopa: Inhibition of peripheral dopa decarboxylase
Levodopa: Increases synaptic dopamine in brain
Biperiden:
Butyrophenones (Conventional)
Haloperidol: Strong D2 receptor blockers
Opioid Agonist
Loperamide: Weak agonists at opioid receptors

many adverse effects associated with blocking a-adrenergic, muscarinic and histaminic
receptors
Partial Seizure
Lacosamide:
