Chapter 12 Hallucinogens
The document provides an overview of the four main classes of hallucinogenic drugs: serotonergic hallucinogens like LSD and psilocybin; methylated amphetamines like MDMA; anticholinergic hallucinogens found in plants; and dissociative anesthetics like PCP. It discusses the history of hallucinogen use from the 1960s counterculture movement to current trends, physiological and psychological effects of different classes of drugs, risks and adverse effects, and mechanisms of action in the brain.
Hallucinogens
Hallucinogens, also known as psychedelic drugs, alter perception and can cause hallucinations. Some examples include LSD, DMT, PCP, and marijuana. Albert Hofmann first synthesized LSD in 1938, and hallucinogenic mushrooms have been used for thousands of years for religious or medicinal purposes by ancient cultures. While some advocate for medical uses, hallucinogens are currently illegal and can have harmful physical, emotional, and social effects if abused.
LSD
Albert Hofmann invented LSD in 1938 while working on ergotamine synthesis. He experienced hallucinations after accidentally absorbing some through his skin. LSD is made from ergotamine, a fungus that grows on grains, and is one of the most commonly used synthetic hallucinogens. It is usually taken orally on blotter paper and causes trips that can involve visual hallucinations, altered perceptions, euphoria or anxiety, lasting 6-12 hours. Benzodiazepines are used to treat negative reactions while supportive care is important for any medical complications.
Designer drug
The document discusses designer drugs, which are substances created to mimic the effects of illegal drugs but evade controlled substance laws. It defines designer drugs and explains that they have similar psychotropic effects to illegal drugs, are not FDA approved, and are produced underground. The document then summarizes several common designer drugs like GHB, opioids, amphetamines, cannabinoids, and PCP, outlining their structures, street names, effects, and risks. It notes that designer drugs pose health hazards since their dosages are unknown.
Hallucinogens
The document discusses hallucinogenic drugs, their effects, mechanisms, and history of use. It defines hallucinogens as drugs that induce unusual mental experiences like dreams, trance, or insanity by altering consciousness, perception, thought, and emotion. Common hallucinogens are derived from fungi, plants, and animals and include LSD, psilocybin, mescaline, ketamine, and PCP. The document outlines criteria for classifying hallucinogens and categories such as psychedelics, dissociatives, and deliriants. It notes the unpredictable nature of hallucinogens and discusses their current legal status and debates around regulation.
Drug dependance and abuse
This document discusses drug dependence and abuse. It defines drug abuse as the compulsive and harmful use of substances, and dependence as a compulsive need to use drugs to function normally and experience withdrawal without them. It explores reasons for drug use and the difference between abuse and dependence. Specific drugs discussed include nicotine, alcohol, and opioids. For each drug, modes of use, mechanisms of action in the body, effects, tolerance, dependence and treatment approaches are summarized.
Ecstacy ppt
MDMA, also known as ecstasy or Molly, is a synthetic psychoactive drug with both stimulant and hallucinogenic properties. It was first synthesized in 1912 but became popular as a recreational street drug in the 1980s. MDMA acts by increasing serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine in the brain, producing feelings of euphoria, empathy, and emotional closeness. However, overuse can lead to long-term negative effects like depression, anxiety, memory loss, and even death from overdose. While some experience withdrawal symptoms, there are currently no pharmacological treatments for MDMA addiction.

The document also summarizes marijuana's absorption in the body, mechanisms of action in the brain, tolerance, dependence, and medical uses such as reducing nausea from chemotherapy and stimulating appetite.
hallucinogens
Hallucinogens are a class of drugs that cause hallucinations or perceptual anomalies by disrupting serotonin production in the brain. There are several types of hallucinations involving sight, sound, smell, and touch. Hallucinogens can come from natural sources like mushrooms or synthetic sources and are consumed in various forms. While some hallucinogens have medical uses, adverse effects include anxiety, paranoia, and flashbacks. Treatment involves both medical and psychological approaches like reducing medication that triggers symptoms, using antipsychotics, and psychotherapy.
Drug abuse
This document discusses drug abuse, its causes, effects, and prevention. It defines drug abuse as the recurrent use of illegal drugs or misuse of prescription drugs with negative consequences. Drug dependence results in physical harm, behavioral issues, and association with other drug abusers over the long term. The phases of drug dependence are experimentation, occasional use, and regular use. Signs of drug abuse include secretive behavior, weight changes, defending drug use, and possession of drugs. Causes include family, school, community and biological factors. Effects are on the user's health and personality, the family's finances and unity, increased crime in the community, and economic impacts like corruption and slowed growth. Prevention strategies mentioned are drug education programs

It focuses on LSD, describing its discovery, early uses, advocates like Timothy Leary, effects, and debates around its medical and therapeutic use. The document also briefly profiles several other common hallucinogenic plants and substances.
Chapter 6 Cocaine, Amphetamines, And Related Stimulants
Cocaine and amphetamines work by blocking the reuptake of neurotransmitters like dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine in the brain. This causes a surge of pleasure and arousal but can also lead to stimulant psychosis, paranoia, and violence with prolonged use. While initially seen as performance enhancers, these drugs are now recognized as highly addictive and dangerous due to health effects like "meth mouth" and long-term brain damage. Treatment of ADHD with stimulant drugs is common but also carries risks like insomnia, appetite loss, and potential growth delays.
SUBSTANCE USE DISORDERS
Substance use disorders are characterized by impaired control over substance use, social impairment, risky use, and pharmacological changes. The addiction cycle involves craving, compulsion, loss of control, and continued use despite consequences, driven by the brain's reward system and neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin. Risk factors include psychological, behavioral, social, demographic, family, and genetic factors. Around 9.3% of Americans currently use illicit drugs, most commonly marijuana and prescription pain relievers among teenagers. Alcohol and tobacco use is declining overall but binge drinking and opioid/heroin overdoses continue to rise significantly.
Drug abuse
This document discusses drugs abuse and addiction. It defines what a drug and drug abuse are, and explains how drug abuse can lead to addiction. It describes various types of legal and illegal drugs, their effects, risks of abuse, and reasons why people use drugs. The major laws governing drugs in India are the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act and Prevention of Illicit Trafficking in Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act.

Common types are discussed including benzodiazepines, barbiturates, and other depressants. Medical uses include treating anxiety and insomnia. Mechanisms of action involve enhancing the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA. Patterns of abuse and dangers of overdose are also summarized.
Club drugs
Club drugs refer to drugs made by underground chemists and sold to enhance social settings like raves and clubs. These drugs have unpredictable ingredients which makes their effects difficult to determine. The six main club drugs according to the FBI are MDMA (ecstasy), GHB, methamphetamine, ketamine, Rohypnol, and LSD. People use club drugs to feel loving, increase energy, relax, detach from reality, or escape from stress, depression or difficult situations in their lives. Prevention includes limiting access to the drugs, education on risks, and addressing underlying problems influencing drug use.
Hallucinogens and marijuana
Hallucinogens like LSD and psilocybin distort sensory perceptions and were widely used in experiments from the 1940s-1960s. LSD was first synthesized in 1938 and can produce hallucinations with very small amounts. Effects include vivid colors, anxiety, increased heart rate, and extreme emotions. Treatment involves detox and therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy and support groups. Marijuana is derived from cannabis plants and smoked or steeped in tea. It causes euphoria, time distortion, and enhanced senses but can also relieve pain. Effective treatments include relapse prevention and support groups which have reduced marijuana use after treatment.

Lesson3 muscle
The muscular system has three main functions: to enable movement of the body, move blood through the circulatory system, and move food through the digestive system. There are three types of muscle tissue: cardiac, smooth, and skeletal. Skeletal muscle is striated, multi-nucleated, and moves bones at joints by always pulling on them. Muscles work in pairs, with one muscle contracting as an agonist to cause movement and another relaxing as an antagonist to oppose the movement.

The Expanding Reach of the Designer Drug Movement in 2011: Challenges for For...
This presentation considers the latest intelligence on what drugs are out in the U.S. grey market of products being sold as novelties, legal highs, “Bath Salts” and research chemicals, including an update on the latest trends in synthetic cannabinoid use and detection.
The proliferation of designer drugs in the last two years has made a remarkable change to the landscape of forensic toxicology and drug identification. The scope of compounds that require detection and measurement has grown from a few drugs that needed to be targeted in specific cases, to a wide range of esoteric compounds that arguably need to be included in general drug screens for forensic purposes. The growth continues as the industry that has built up around recreational drug manufacture adjusts in an attempt to stay one step ahead of the law.
The presentation reviews the general chemical drug classes encountered in forensic toxicology and chemistry casework, including mephedrone, methylone and MDPV, recently scheduled by the US DEA, and related the cathinones, 2C compounds, tryptamines, and pyrovalerones. This includes a survey of the latest published research, and a review of resources for analytical testing and standards.
Methamphetamine
Methamphetamine was discovered in Japan in 1919 and was widely used during World War 2. It was produced in illegal meth labs across the United States and reached peak prescription levels in 1967. Some of its common nicknames include crank, meth, ice, and speed. Short term effects include increased wakefulness and activity while long term effects can include brain and organ damage. Treatments for addiction commonly involve cognitive behavioral therapy.
Club Drugs
Club drugs are a group of psychoactive drugs that are often abused at parties and nightclubs. They act on the central nervous system and can cause changes in mood and awareness. Some common club drugs are MDMA (ecstasy), GHB, and Rohypnol. These drugs have also been used to facilitate sexual assault due to their ability to incapacitate victims. Abusing club drugs can cause serious health effects such as coma, seizures, and even death when combined with alcohol or other drugs.
Chapter26 illegal drugs
This document discusses various types of drugs, their usage and effects. It covers stimulants like amphetamines, cocaine and methamphetamine. It also discusses depressants like alcohol, sleeping pills and narcotics like morphine, codeine and heroin. Marijuana usage statistics for teens are provided. The document warns that all drugs can be addictive and harmful.
The New Designer Drugs
This presentation aims to describe and compare the new designer drugs, #KratomEffects or sometimes referred to as "legal highs" (kratom, bath salts and k2, among others) to the opiates and cocaine from the good old days.
Tertiary resources
Tertiary literature provides summarized information from primary sources for quick reference. It has advantages of being convenient and easy to use with well-established information, but limitations include potentially outdated information due to delays between original publication and summarization. Tertiary literature is best used for background information or quick answers, and should be evaluated based on author expertise, timeliness, and citation of appropriate sources.
Narco analysis
Narcoanalysis is a forensic technique where a psychotropic drug like sodium pentothal is used to induce a hypnotic or semi-conscious state for interrogation purposes. It was first used in 1922 in the US and was widely adopted by intelligence agencies. In India, it is still used with court permission at forensic labs in Bangalore and Gujarat. A team of experts including a psychologist, psychiatrist, physician and anesthesiologist conduct the pre-test interview, administer the drug, question the subject in the induced state, and conduct a post-test interview. While it can potentially help elicit concealed information, there are legal and ethical issues around using it given constitutional protections against self-incrimination.
Journal club drug eluting balloon for cad
This document discusses treatment options for in-stent restenosis (ISR) in a patient with a past history of percutaneous coronary intervention. It summarizes the findings of several studies comparing drug-eluting balloons (DEBs) and drug-eluting stents (DES) for treating ISR. The studies found that DES were superior to DEBs for reducing repeat revascularization, while safety outcomes like death and heart attack were similar. However, DEBs may be preferred over DES in certain high risk cases, like those with multiple stent layers or who are at high risk of bleeding complications from long-term dual antiplatelet therapy. Additional research with longer follow-ups is still needed to further compare DEBs
Principles Of Drug Information 2008

Hallucinogens Project
Hallucinogens are drugs that cause profound distortions of reality through hallucinations and delusions. Some common hallucinogens are LSD, PCP, mescaline, and peyote. LSD is a clear, odorless substance that is one of the most potent hallucinogens. PCP was originally developed as an anesthetic but was discontinued due to serious side effects. Mescaline is found in peyote cacti and has been used in religious ceremonies by some cultures. Hallucinogens do not typically cause physical addiction but can impair cognitive abilities.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
