Abstract
Alcohol and flunitrazepam did not have any pharmacokinetic interactions when ingested 30 minutes apart at night. Flunitrazepam, 2.0 mg, but not 0.8 Gm/kg alcohol had a strong deleterious effect on performance shortly after ingestion. The combination of flunitrazepam and alcohol impaired tracking in a divided attention task the following morning.This publication has 20 references indexed in Scilit:
