  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

(1) In order to make a comparison of Metrazol and Megimide for inducing seizure discharges, each of these was intravenously given in unanesthetized cats. Thedosage was 10 mg and 2.5 mg/30 sec for Metrazol and Megimide respectively.

a) Body weight should be considered as a significant factor for threshold determination.

b) The minimum dosage and minimum injection times for inducing major seizure were 22.5 mg/kg and 6.3, for Metrazol and 10.0 mg/kg and 11 for Meg-imide respectively.

c) From the standpoint of EEG discharge, Metrazol seizure was of subcortical origin and Megimide seizure was of cortical origin.

(2) Statistical analysis was made in activation of sei-zure discharge of human epileptic and non-epileptic patients who showed no seizure discharge in routine EEG examination. The intravenously given dosage was 1 mg and 0.25 mg/kg/min for Metrazol and Megimide respectively.

a) In epileptic group, more than 90% of activation was obtained by 7 injection times of Metrazol (7 mg/kg in total), and, in contrast, by over 11 injection times of Megimide (over 2.75 mg/kg in total).

b) In non-epileptic group, though all of them had a certain anamnesis of head trauma or neurological symptoms, each of these two dosage induced more than 30% of seizure discharge activation.

c) Both in epileptic and non-epileptic groups, Metrazol tended to activate bilateral diffuse seizure dis-charges more than localized discharges based on the analysis of their threshold and numbers of activation. Vice versa in Megimide.

(3) It is to be stressed that these characteristics of Metrazol and Megimide for activation of seizure dis-charge and pharmacological values were consistent ir-respective of species difference between cat and human, and pathological difference between epileptic and non-epileptic patients.
