Objective: Organic phosphates (OP) bind covalently to acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and acetylcholine (Ach) accumulates in the synaptic cleft. Administering oximes before aging process causes breakage of the covalent bond between OP-AChE, and allows reactivation of AChE. Pralidoxime (PAM) is the most commonly used oxime.

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.

Nicotine Replacement Combined with a Novel Compound (ProBAN) for Smoking Cessation: A Pilot Study
BACKGROUND: Smoking cessation rates with available pharmacological therapies remain suboptimal. Anecdotal observations with a combination of sublingual pralidoxime and ipratropium (ProBAN) suggested that these agents in combination with nicotine gum ...

Accidental organophosphate poisoning: A case series of 2 pediatric coumaphos exposures
Introduction Pediatric organophosphate insecticide poisonings are rare in the United States, and life‐threatening toxicity is rarely seen. We report 2 accidental ingestions of the organophosphate insecticide coumaphos that resulted in life‐threatening ...
