Benzodiazepines

- Reduces Alcohol Withdrawal Seizure risk
- Reduces Delirium Tremens risk
- Precautions
- Monitor for over-sedation and respiratory depression (esp. concomitant liver disease)
- Agent Selection
-
Benzodiazepine Alternatives (in patients in whom Benzodiazepines are considered too risky, commonly used in Europe)
- Precautions
- Carbamazepine, Gabapentin and Valproic Acid have not been shown to prevent Alcohol Withdrawal Seizure
- Carbamazepine, Gabapentin and Valproic Acid increase GABA (via Sodium channel blockade)
- Adverse risks include Thrombocytopenia and other Bone Marrow suppression, Pancreatitis
- Carbamazepine
- Effective in mild to moderate withdrawal
- Protocol 1: Tapered
- Tapered 200 mg four times daily tapered over 5 days
- Start at Carbamazepine (Tegretol) 800 mg on day 1
- Finish at 200 mg once on day 5
- Protocol 2: Constant
- Carbamazepine 200 mg every 8 hours or 400 mg every 12 hours
- References
- Gabapentin
- Potentiates CNS GABA activity and decreases glutamate activity
- Decreases Alcohol craving and depression
- Dosing (minimum effective daily dose 900 mg/day)
- Start 600 mg three times daily for 3 days
- Then 300 mg three times daily for 3 days
- References
- Potentiates CNS GABA activity and decreases glutamate activity
- Valproic Acid
- Has also been used in Alcohol Withdrawal
- Not recommended for monotherapy (may be used as adjunct with Benzodiazepines)
- Avoid in severe liver disease or pregnancy
- Dosing 300 mg to 500 mg every 6 hours
- Precautions
- Adjunctive agents that require airway and ventilation management (see severe Alcohol Withdrawal protocol below)

Definition (MSH) | An acute organic mental disorder induced by cessation or reduction in chronic alcohol consumption. Clinical characteristics include CONFUSION; DELUSIONS; vivid HALLUCINATIONS; TREMOR; agitation; insomnia; and signs of autonomic hyperactivity (e.g., elevated blood pressure and heart rate, dilated pupils, and diaphoresis). This condition may occasionally be fatal. It was formerly called delirium tremens. (From Adams et al., Principles of Neurology, 6th ed, p1175) |
