Alcohol consumption alters the pharmacodynamics of alfentanil.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Propofol is widely used clinically for the induction and maintenance of anesthesia. Clinical case reports have shown that propofol has an antiatrial tachycardia/fibrillation effect; however, the related ionic mechanisms are not fully understood. The current study investigates the effects of propofol on human...
