Abstract Objective Acute organophosphate (OP) intoxication affects a significant number of individuals worldwide. Those who survive OP‐induced cholinergic crisis, which includes status epilepticus, often develop neurological morbidities. Here, we provide a rigorous characterization of the acute and delayed electrophysiological responses to OP ...

Acute poisoning with the organophosphate, soman, triggers status epilepticus that rapidly becomes refractory to standard of care treatment with midazolam (MDZ). Combined treatment with MDZ and allopregnanolone (ALLO) significantly suppresses seizure activity, which is associated with attenuated neurodegeneration and neuroinflammation.
