Research Papers that Mention the Interaction
“ACTH and beta-endorphin were markedly increased in the etomidate group and ACTH concentrations were eight times greater than the corresponding values in the midazolam group after surgery (ACTH 141 vs. 18 pmol.l-1).”
[TIVA with etomidate-fentanyl versus midazolam-fentanyl. The perioperative stress of coronary surgery overcomes the inhibition of cortisol synthesis caused by etomidate-fentanyl anesthesia].“Etomidate and midazolam both prevent the normal perioperative cortisol increase in minor surgery, but the mechanisms by which they do this are not identical: etomidate inhibits steroid synthesis in the adrenal cortex, leading to low cortisol and high ACTH levels, whereas midazolam primarily prevents ACTH increases.”
“Methohexital and midazolam both tended to decrease ACTH and cortisol at large doses, and increase these hormones at small doses, but the HPA effects of neither drug differed significantly from when saline was available.”
