nondepolarizing meds act as an antagonist to acetylcholine at the myoneural junction in the muscle. Polarizing will mimick the effects of acetylcholine and cause membrane depolarization at the neuromuscular junction. In other words, look over your action potential.
Smooth endoplasmic reticulum (ER) lacks ribosomes on its surface and is involved in lipid synthesis and detoxification of drugs. Rough ER, on the other hand, has ribosomes on its surface, involved in protein synthesis and processing.
Falling asleep is a natural process where the body and brain gradually shut down for rest, while passing out is a sudden and involuntary loss of consciousness often due to factors like alcohol or drugs.
Neuropharmacology is the study of how drugs affect the nervous system, particularly the brain. It encompasses the interactions between drugs and neurons, as well as how these interactions can influence behavior, mood, cognition, and other neurological functions. This field is crucial for understanding the mechanisms of action of psychoactive drugs and developing treatments for neurological and psychiatric disorders.
Conservation biology focuses on preserving biodiversity and ecosystems, often through habitat restoration and species protection. Biotechnology, on the other hand, involves using technology to manipulate biological systems for various purposes such as developing new drugs, improving crop yields, or creating genetically modified organisms.
How do drugs work in the brain?Drugs are chemicals. They work in the brain by tapping into the brain's communication system and interfering with the way nerve cells normally send, receive, and process information. Some drugs, such as marijuana and heroin, can activate neurons because their chemical structure mimics that of a natural neurotransmitter. This similarity in structure "fools" receptors and allows the drugs to lock onto and activate the nerve cells. Although these drugs mimic brain chemicals, they don't activate nerve cells in the same way as a natural neurotransmitter, and they lead to abnormal messages being transmitted through the network.Other drugs, such as amphetamine or cocaine, can cause the nerve cells to release abnormally large amounts of natural neurotransmitters or prevent the normal recycling of these brain chemicals. This disruption produces a greatly amplified message, ultimately disrupting communication channels. The difference in effect can be described as the difference between someone whispering into your ear and someone shouting into a microphone.How do drugs work in the brain to produce pleasure?Most drugs of abuse directly or indirectly target the brain's reward system by flooding the circuit with dopamine. Dopamine is a neurotransmitter present in regions of the brain that regulate movement, emotion, cognition, motivation, and feelings of pleasure. The overstimulation of this system, which rewards our natural behaviors, produces the euphoric effects sought by people who abuse drugs and teaches them to repeat the behavior.How does stimulation of the brain's pleasure circuit teach us to keep taking drugs?Our brains are wired to ensure that we will repeat life-sustaining activities by associating those activities with pleasure or reward. Whenever this reward circuit is activated, the brain notes that something important is happening that needs to be remembered, and teaches us to do it again and again, without thinking about it. Because drugs of abuse stimulate the same circuit, we learn to abuse drugs in the same way.
All drugs do different things. And there's a difference between pharmacological drugs and illegal mind altering drugs.
the difference between experimental and dependant drug are that experimental drugsis when you insert it through your veins etc, depentant are drugs that help and sometimes destroy yor inernal organs
Prescriptions are drugs. Taking drugs is done by abusing controlled substances, or by taking a prescribed medication as directed. In short, there is no difference, other than the intention of the user.
The basic difference between these two drug is that desloratadine is major metabolite of loratadine. But this difference does not make any significant variation in effectiveness between these two drugs.
drugs
pharmacutics manufacture drugs while pharmacist prescribe (give) drugs to patient
Drugs are what makes you high, or very makes you very stupid. Dregs are what is a small quality of something.
There is no difference between the two. They both are illegal. They both mean that you were pulled over and were either impaired by alcohol, drugs, or both.
Class A drugs are the drugs that are most dangerous for example cocaine. Class B drugs are the drugs that are mildly dangerous. Class C drugs are the drugs that are least dangerous for example cannabis.
Antibiotics are drugs that kill bacteria. Painkillers are drugs that dampen down the bodies ability to feel pain.
Yes, they can tell the difference between the two, although the two drugs are similar they do have different ingredients that can be tested for.
Sounds like issues with drugs would be someones reasonings for not liking drugs or like people taking drugs whereas drug problems would be someone battling addiction of drugs.
