Barbiturate Intoxication
The most important thing when barbiturate intoxication is suspected is to seek emergency care immediately. It refers to the toxic effects caused by an excessive amount of these sedatives, which depress the central nervous system.
Warning signs: deep drowsiness, confusion, slurred speech, slow breathing and, in severe cases, loss of alertness.
Which specialist manages it? The acute phase falls to the emergency physician in an emergency department. When the use is related to dependence or emotional distress, the psychologist can support the process afterward. If you suspect intoxication, do not wait: contacting emergency services is the right course of action for barbiturate intoxication.
