What did Karl Marx say about religion?
Marx believed that religion was the opium of the people, meaning that it was imposed upon the common person to control him. He believed there was no such thing as a God or gods.
Some things Marx said about religion:
On religion's lack of rationality:
Religion is ". . .a complete negation of all reasoning."
It ". . .explains nothing."
On religion's use as a tool to keep the people in place:
Priests ". . . calculate on the cowardice of the congregation."
"It is the opium of the people."
On religion's hypocrisy:
". . . the English Established Church, for example, will more readily pardon an attack on 38 of 39 of its articles than on 1/39 of its income."
How can you draw the structure of morphine?
first of all you have to figure out all the elements, the formula is C17H19NO3. SOO figure it out from there.
What may result when combining alcohol with ambien seroquel and methadone?
Well first off,thats 4 different downers/depressants being taken.
Thats way too much for your body.
The ambien and alcohol and seroquel and alcohol will result in a blackout most likely.
A black out would be lucky tho because theres a good chance of dying taking all these depressants together ESPECIALLY with the alcohol mixed in.And the methadone too.
Alcohol potentiates nearly every pill and methadone a strong opiod narcotic that can cause people to nod out when taken too much or taken for that purpose.
Dont do this,it is a horrible idea.
What does a PTI drug test include?
Every thing buddy my freind works there she's bin smokeing for years and had to quit to keep a job there
No, it is an analgesic (used as anti-inflammatory), but it isn't an opiate.
Is it possible for opiates to not show up on a swab drug test?
yes its possible for it not to show up.
Does morphine sulfate stop a chronic cough?
My experience as a sufferer for 17 years is that morphine sulphate (20 mgs. a day) can help to reduce the cough. I have also found that I slept better on morphine. After taking it for 18 months I recently came off it. Two weeks later, my cough is worse and I've woken up in the middle of every night and started to cough. So today, I'm going back to the doctor to ask for another prescription. I've read extensively about the possible side-effects etc. online, but as far as I'm concerned, any small risk is worth it for the improved quality of life that the morphine will bring. If you're interested, I have a blog about persistent coughs which can be found here: http://coughup.blogspot.com
What is the Christian answer to giving morphine to a patient?
A patient that is in pain should be relieved of that pain. Even Christ was given a pain killer as he hung on the cross.
Longer AnswerChristians undoubtedly have varying views about giving morphine to a patient. On one hand, morphine relieves severe pain that other medications might not have any effect on. On the other hand, the end result of taking morphine in doses that relieve severe pain can be an earlier death. Morphine is also highly addictive, so if a patient should recover, they would very likely have to be weaned off morphine gradually.
Those are all issues that anyone, not only Christians, would have to consider when deciding their views about giving morphine to patients, and there are no easy, cut-and-dried answer. It's something each individual has to decide for him or her self, and whatever one believes, when faced with a situation where he or she is the one who is in severe pain or has a loved one who is, views could change drastically.
Biblical references that might apply to this question are:Matthew: "Vinegar mingled with gall" (xxvii, 34).
Mark: "Wine mingled with myrrh" (xv, 23).
Luke: "Vinegar" alone (xxiii, 36).
The draughts mentioned by Matthew and Mark refer to a Jewish mixture intended to produce stupefaction and lessen pain.
Proverbs 31:6-9
Give strong drink unto him that is ready to perish, and wine unto those that be of heavy hearts. Let him drink, and forget his poverty, and remember his misery no more.
The substance "strong drink" (whatever it is) maybe similar to morphine or may be different, but the intention is the same.
Can withdrawal from morphine cause hallucinations?
:absolutely. not intense hallucinations but abuse especially among infrequent or seldom users that take 2,3 or 4 (dare they not take more! methadone is nothing to play with) can experience mild hallucinations, which will in turn scare the user (because of its logic blocking anxiety affects) usually. the hallucinations aren't vivid but consist of
realistic quiet sounds like phone rings or beeps that are strictly fabricated by the users mind. they are typically brief and happen once or twice the whole trip, but can cause a spike in anxiety and cause the person to be distrusting of their sense of sound for a few hours. hahahaha! XD most typically when the user is resting their eyes or going to sleep (increasing anxiety reactions because of guard being down)
visual effects also happen very rarely. almost always one of the two following:
sensing movements in the peripherals and distortions in forward sight such as staticky looking or reddish colored everything.
these hallucinations are rare but nothing to call 911 over. the drug itself
- again - causes anxiety so the abuser may call poison control or an ambulance because they are very paranoid after a hallucination because they knew right off the bat it was just their mind playing tricks.
and remember folks IF YOU ARE DRINKING (and this is when youll be most tempted to break this rule) DO NOT TAKE ANY PILLS AT ALL!!! THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT! YOU KNOW DAMN WELL WHY it doesnt take much of either when you combine the two to KILL YOU. im serious.. 4 beers and 1 methadone is risky busieness!
How long does it take oral suspension of morphine to work?
IT takes about 10-15-30 minutes somewhere around there and it could take up to an hour depending on the individuals
Can gas chromatography be used in determining various opiates injested?
Yes, but only after the sample has been purified and concentrated.
Sample Preparation Process And Other Related Information:
Identification of a specific opiates is not as simple of just injecting a sample of stomach contents, blood, or urine into a GC (gas chromatography). Blood, stomach contents, and even urine samples would need to be "worked up" first by being filtered and/or centrifuged. The filtrate would then be added to a sepratory funnel along with ether, methylene chloride, or another appropriate organic solvent, and the pH of the aqueous fraction would be adjusted to approximately 10 to 11 in order to ensure that the drug is in its free base form rather than as a salt or bound to a protein. At that point, the drug would be tens, but usually hundreds if not thousands of times more soluble in the organic solvent and when shaken, the vast majority of the drug dissolves in the water-insoluble organic solvent. Any water is removed from the solvent, then most of the solvent is evaporated off to concentrate any analyte present before the solution is injected into a GC, although a GC coupled with a mass spectrometer (MS) is almost always used. Some opiates or opiate agonists may first need to be derivitized to an ether or ester in order to significantly reduce the melting point of the derivitized drug before it is introduced into the GC. The GC would have a heated injection port for such relatively large molecules, and it's important that the analyte is not pyrolyzed or oxidized upon being injected into the instrument.
Many closely related opiates such as codeine, morphine, and diacetylmorphine (heroin) yield a common metabolite when they are metabolized by the liver. That means that once any of those drugs has been in someone's system for longer than a certain amount of time, depending on the drug, the dosage, and the individual, it is no longer possible to tell which drug was taken initially. However, if an opiate or a combination of opiates is recovered from a person's stomach, or if a blood sample is taken before an opiate or mixture of opiates has had time to be completely or nearly completely metabolized, then it is possible to identify the individual drug or drugs taken. I have observed a drug-testing laboratory at a nuclear power plant where workers' urine was analyzed by GC/MS to identify "opiates" as well as amphetamines, cocaine, PCP, THC, and barbituates. Most companies also test for benzodiazepines like Valium® or Ativan®.
Drug-testing laboratories employed to screen employees, parolees, criminal suspects, or other subjects are not research facilities, meaning that very specific procedures are used to identify whether a drug and/or one or more of its metabolites are present in a urine [usually] or blood sample above a prescribed level. Such laboratories report a sample as "positive" or "negative" for a given drug or class of drugs; the specific drug a subject used (except for marijuana and PCP) is not identified.
Other opiates and opiate agonists (drugs that aren't technically opiates, but that bind to the same receptor sites as true opiates) have unique metabolites such that the parent molecule can be identified. Such identifications are much more likely to be performed in a forensic laboratory. A typical, drug-testing laboratory identifies a sample as "positive" or "negative" for a drug or class of drugs. The specific opiate, barbituate, benzodiazepine, or amphetamine taken is usually not identified.
No, diet pills are not opiates. Opiates are a class of drugs derived from the opium poppy, primarily used for pain relief. Diet pills can contain various ingredients, such as stimulants or appetite suppressants, but they do not belong to the opiate category. It's important to consult a healthcare professional before using any diet pills to understand their effects and potential risks.

Morphine causes a reaction to receptors in the brain causing you to feel dizzy, sleepy and even euphoric.
Can you mix clonazepam with opiates?
No, you do not mix different tranquilizers together. Taking different sedative drugs together could make you pass out. You could even have trouble breathing.
I urge you to find a good therapist who can teach you healthy coping skills for dealing with your anxiety and stress. This is the only CURE for anxiety, and can help you to get off of the sedatives and back to living!

Morphine sulfate contin 60 mg codeine?
unfortunately your question is incomplete so cannot be answered. Morphine and codeine are rlated substances. Morphine Sulphate does not contain codiene as such.
Is morphine sulphate treatment for periphial neurophathy?
The drug Morphine sulphate is not a treatment for this actual ailment but it can be used to reduce long term associated pain. This drug can have some unpleasent side effects and should be started at low doses until a level of tolerence is achieved. If the pain is constant a time released analgesic such as this could be considered. If the Pain is less frequent, however, a Hydrocodone or Oxycodone based non CR type medication might be more effective. Again, always start at a low dose and increase mg dosage as, and if needed.
How much bromfed dm do i need to take to wean myself off opiates?
You're making things worse trying to do this yourself. Have a doctor help you to wean yourself off so you won't get so many withdrawal symptoms. There are good medications that help with this, and a good doctor can provide help and instruction to get yourself clean! Bromfed DM isn't going to help.
