Abstract:
:Ethchlorvynol is a commonly abused sedative hypnotic. I report here a seven-day study of serum ethchlorvynol concentrations in a patient who had received an extreme overdose. These concentrations were correlated with the patient's response to stimuli. Serum ethchlorvynol concentrations were logarithmically related to time, a fact that can be useful in predicting when a patient's serum ethchlorvynol concentration will return to a therapeutic concentration. In this case the decrease was about 35% per 24h.
