Acute benzodiazepine poisoning results in dizziness, ataxia, nystagmus, dysarthria, hypoxia, hypothermia, bradycardia, hypotension, apnea, pulmonary aspiration, respiratory depression, coma, cardiopulmonary arrest and death. Anyway, deep nonresponsive coma should be investigated for additional etiologies. On the other hand, human transmissible prion disease has a fatal outcome with no specific treatment.
