Meine Meinung:
Klingt erstmal ganz schrecklich, spricht aber letztendlich für die Sicherheit von Baclofen in der Behandlung der Alkoholabhängigkeit. Wenn man liest: baclofen was 340 mg
(range 140–800 mg). Three patients who had co-ingested benzodiazepines had a decreased level of consciousness (Glasgow Coma Scale <8) and flumazenil had been given to reverse coma. Blood alcohol concentration, requested for all patients, was positive in three
(ranging from 153 to 495 mg/100 ml). Gastric lavage was performed in two cases.
All patients made a full recovery wird deutlich, wie sicher Baclofen tatsächlich ist.
