27. A 2-year-old girl is brought to the emergency department 90 minutes after ingesting a drug from her mother's purse. On arrival, the child is sedated; respirations and blood pressure are normal. Which of the following drugs is most likely to reverse the sedation?



A ) Acetylcysteine



B ) Amyl nitrate



C ) Apomorphine



D ) Atropine



E ) Flumazenil



F ) Haloperidol



G ) Naloxone




Answer: E?
drug that the child took was a benzo, and Flumazenil is the antidote.


Child is sedated.
Resp and BP are normal so it CAN'T be Opioid overdose.
Opioids cause resp depression and this child is not showing that.

Atropine causes Sedation so thats not it.
