You mean dopamine. Opiates cause your brain to release your dopamine supply which is what causes the euphoria.
Yes
on a low dosage the opiates will not be blocked by methadone. 30 mg will not block it
No Suboxone will not block the use of opiates on a drug test. It will still show up, but you won't get the feeling from the opiates. You will however get into trouble if you are being prescribed Suboxone.
if your asking "how" i believe it lowers dopamine productionUpdate: Kind of. Anti psych medications block dopamine receptors. This causes lower levels of dopamine.
hallucinations
Dopamine receptor antagonists (DAs)-- The older class of antipsychotic medications, also called neuroleptics. These primarily block the site on nerve cells that normally receive the brain chemical dopamine.
No. Wellbutrin (bupropion) is a norepinephrine and dopamine reuptake inhibitor, and nicotinic antagonist. It is not related chemically to opiates, and does not normally resemble them in its effects.
For me, longer than 24 hours
Drugs that block catechol-o-methyl transferase, an enzyme that breaks down dopamine
From personal experience, no it will not mask any opiates you've taken. yesterday i took a full blown dt, ranging from pcp to mj to opiates. even tho the only things i do are mj nd opiates, i passed everything but opiates itself. so no i do not think it works to hide any opiates. sorry
That is one of the theories. The other theory is tied to the function of dopamine. Dopamine inhibits another chemical called GABA. Without any GABA dopamine doesn't really do anything. The other theory is that they have normal levels of Dopamine and low levels of GABA. These theories came about by the observation that anti-dopamine drugs help the symptoms. The simple answer is we're not quite sure yet.
