安眠酮(Methaqualonum)是1965年开始应用的比较新型的长效催眠剂。除镇静、催眠外,尚有松弛肌肉、抗抽搐、镇咳和局部麻醉作用。一般认为毒性较小,但我们最近连续收到有关该药引起精神症状反应的几篇稿件,查阅国内主要杂志尚未见报道,现特摘登于下,以引起注意。国外参考文献附文末供参考。 Methaqualone is a relatively new long-acting hypnotic that began in 1965. In addition to sedation, hypnosis, there are still loose muscles, anti-convulsions, antitussive and local anesthetic effects. It is generally considered less toxic. However, we recently received several articles on the psychotropic symptoms caused by this medicine. We have not yet read the major domestic magazines.
