Addictive drugs
A lack of dopamine causes Parkinson's disease. As dopamine is an interneuron synaptic neurotransmitter, it controls the passage of impulses along different neurons. If it can't regulate the signal, this leads to frequent involuntary movements as in Parkinson's.
Dopamine imbalance is linked to the cause of Lewy body dementia, as reduced dopamine levels contribute to the development of motor symptoms like stiffness and slow movement. In Lewy body dementia, abnormal protein deposits affect dopamine-producing cells in the brain, leading to cognitive and motor impairments typically seen in the condition.
Yes, there are addictive drugs that can act on other neurotransmitter systems aside from dopamine, such as opioids acting on the mu-opioid receptors. While dopamine release in the nucleus accumbens is a common pathway for many addictive drugs, it is not the only mechanism by which addiction can occur.
The symptoms in Parkinson's Disease are due to not enough dopamine at a particular part of the brain, specifically the substantia nigra. So the goal in treatment is to try and replace this missing dopamine.
L-dopa is a precursor that is converted to dopamine in the brain. It is not an agonist or antagonist itself, but once converted to dopamine, it acts as an agonist on dopamine receptors.
Yes, a drug overdose will cause death if medical intervention is not sought in good time.
You mean dopamine. Opiates cause your brain to release your dopamine supply which is what causes the euphoria.

Insufficient levels of dopamine can cause problems with sleep, mood and movement. For example, lack of dopamine causes the muscular problems seen in people with Parkinson's disease.

Yes - if it is something that you can overdose from with 20 of them - like arsenic. No, if it is something you cannot overdose from with 20 of them - like sugar.
I am assuming you mean "Ativan". Taking normally prescribed amounts of both would not cause an overdose.
Definitely! It causes hypotension and could cause heart faliure. An overdose could be fatal!
Drug overdose
Yes.
