Addiction.com Respiratory depression means unusually slow or shallow breathing, which can result too much carbon dioxide and not enough oxygen in the blood. The condition can be life-threatening. Respiratory depression can be brought about by simply holding one’s breath, but the most common cause is a drug overdose. Alcohol, barbiturates, opiates, GHB and sedatives, especially when used in combinations or large amounts, can result in respiratory depression.

Macromineral Deficiencies and Acid-Base Disorders Respiratory alkalosis. Respiratory alkalosis develops when rapid, deep breathing (hyperventilation) causes too much carbon dioxide to be expelled from the bloodstream. The most common cause of hyperventilation, and thus respiratory alkalosis, is anxiety. Other causes of hyperventilation and consequent respiratory alkalosis include pain, low levels of oxygen in the blood, fever, and aspirin overdose (which can also cause metabolic acidosis).
