Alfathesin and Enflurane: Synergistic Central Nervous System Excitation?

ROBERT HUDSON 1 and C. T. ETHANS 1

1 Department of Anaesthesia, University of Manitoba

This case report describes signs of central nervous system excitation occurring after administration of alfathesin and enflurane in doses lower than those previously associated with this type of phenomena (alfathesin 36 microlitres/kilogram, enflurane two volumes per cent). This suggests that these drugs may interact to increase the probability of seizure-like activity.

Key Words: ANAESTHETICS, complications, alfathesin, enflurane • NERVES, excitation
