A strong correlation (r = .69; P < .01) was found between the aVd of caffeine and the anesthetic induction dose of thiopental when the loss of eyelid reflex was used as the end point.

Although in calcium-free solution thiopental (100 microg/mL) did not contract aortic rings, it abolished the contractile effect of either phenylephrine (10(-6) M) or caffeine (10 mM).
The increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentration elicited by thiopental in Ca2+-free solution and its ability to block the effect of phenylephrine and caffeine suggest that this barbiturate can deplete intracellular pools of calcium.

Thiopentone , at concentrations over 10−4 M, inhibited the KCl-induced contractions in normal bathing fluid and those induced by caffeine in Ca++-free fluid and, at concentrations over 3 × 10−4 M, inhibited norepinephrine-induced contractions in normal and Ca++-free bathing fluids significantly.
