It describes 8 classes of hallucinogens: marijuana, ecstasy, LSD, peyote, PCP, psilocybin, morning glory seeds, and Rohypnol. For each, it provides the scientific and street names, active ingredients, brief history and origins, and physical and psychological effects users may experience like hallucinations, changes in perception, increased heart rate, and nausea. The goal is to educate on these substances' properties and dangers.
Classification of drugs according to effects
This document classifies drugs into five categories based on their effects:
1. Stimulants such as nicotine, cocaine, and methamphetamine raise physiological activity levels in the central nervous system and produce feelings of being "up".
2. Depressants like alcohol and barbiturates slow down the central nervous system, lowering heart and breathing rates, and are used medically to treat anxiety, insomnia, and other conditions.
3. Hallucinogens such as LSD, PCP, ketamine, and psilocybin alter perceptions of reality and affect all senses.
4. Narcotics are principally used for pain management and induce sleep or numbness when administered through inhalation,
drugsofabuse-190812163055 (1).pdf
This document outlines the six classifications of drugs of abuse:
1. Gateway drugs include legal drugs like tobacco and alcohol that can lead to use of more dangerous drugs.
2. Depressant drugs slow down the central nervous system and include alcohol, barbiturates, and tranquilizers. They are sometimes prescribed to help with stress or anger issues.
3. Stimulant drugs speed up the central nervous system and include amphetamines, caffeine, nicotine, cocaine, and methamphetamine. They provide energy but can cause depression and tiredness.
4. Narcotics relieve pain and induce sleep and include opioids like heroin and marijuana. They are prescribed for pain but can be abused.

This document discusses different types of hallucinogenic drugs, including indoleamines like LSD and psilocybin, phenylalkylamines like mescaline and ecstasy, arylcyclohexylamines like phencyclidine, and cannabinoids like THC found in marijuana. It describes their origins, chemical structures, effects on mood, behavior and perception, and common forms of use. Hallucinogens can produce dream-like states with distorted senses, colorful hallucinatory images, altered time perception and mood changes. Higher doses may cause panic reactions. Tolerance occurs but reverse tolerance is also possible. Dependence tends to be psychological rather than physical.
Ap drugs slideshare
Altered States of Consciousness discusses various drugs and their effects. Drugs can be agonists that combine with receptors to produce physiological responses, or antagonists that counteract other drugs' effects. Reuptake inhibitors block the release of serotonin. If a drug is used often, tolerance develops requiring more of the drug to feel the same effect. Stopping a drug can cause withdrawal symptoms. Depressants like alcohol impair skills while stimulants like caffeine and nicotine provide energy. Hallucinogens like LSD and marijuana can cause hallucinations. Cocaine prevents neurotransmitter reuptake, producing a brief euphoric rush followed by a crash.

Tranquillizers
Tranquilizers act on the central nervous system and are used to treat mental illnesses involving psychosis or behavioral disorders. They reduce anxiety, fear, tension and agitation. Tranquilizers are classified as either minor tranquilizers, also called anxiolytics, or major tranquilizers, also known as antipsychotics. Major tranquilizers are further divided into first generation and second generation drugs from different classes such as phenothiazines, butyrophenones, thioxanthenes and others.
antipsycoactive and psycoactive drugs with their classification
This document provides information on psychoactive drugs and anti-psychotic drugs. It discusses psychosis and schizophrenia, the mechanisms of action of typical and atypical anti-psychotics. It classifies first and second generation anti-psychotics and describes their medical uses and adverse effects. The document covers topics such as the dopaminergic pathways in the brain, symptoms of schizophrenia, and the classification, mechanisms of action, and examples of various psychoactive and anti-psychotic drug categories.
Classification of drug of abuse
This document discusses the classification and effects of three classes of drugs of abuse: depressants, stimulants, and hallucinogens. Depressants like alcohol and barbiturates slow brain function and can cause fatigue, dizziness, and slowed breathing. Stimulants like cocaine and amphetamines increase alertness but long-term abuse can cause organ damage, exhaustion, and cardiovascular issues. Hallucinogens like LSD and PCP alter perception and can cause hallucinations; some are extracted from plants while others are synthetic.

Goldberg Chapter 13
This document discusses various hallucinogenic drugs, including their origins, effects, and historical uses. It covers plant-based hallucinogens like peyote, psilocybin mushrooms, and anticholinergic plants. It also examines synthetic drugs such as LSD, PCP, ketamine, and DMT. The effects of hallucinogens range from euphoria and enhanced senses to anxiety, panic, and psychosis. Some hallucinogens have been used medically or in religious rituals throughout history, while others like LSD and PCP became popular recreationally before being regulated.
Lsd
LSD is a synthetic hallucinogenic drug discovered in 1938 that was widely experimented with and used recreationally in the 1960s but is now illegal; it produces vivid visual hallucinations and alters thinking when taken in doses of 100-200 micrograms but can also cause anxiety, paranoia, and flashbacks, with rare potential long-term psychological risks if used heavily or by those with mental illness. Harm reduction principles for guiding someone on an LSD trip focus on creating a safe environment without interference while talking through the experience afterwards.
transqulizers
Major tranquilizers (also known as antipsychotics or neuroleptics) are used to treat more severe mental disorders like schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. They work by blocking the neurotransmitter dopamine in the brain. There are two main classes - typical and atypical. Typical antipsychotics include phenothiazines (e.g. chlorpromazine), thioxanthenes, and butyrophenones. They are effective but have side effects. Atypical antipsychotics have fewer side effects and include clozapine, risperidone, and olanzapine. Minor tranquilizers are used for milder anxiety and include benzodiazepines like diazepam, alprazol

shikimikacidpathway-150428115803-conversion-gate01 (2).pdf
Shikimic acid is an important biochemical metabolite found in plants and microorganisms. It was first isolated from the Japanese star anise plant in 1885. The shikimate pathway is a seven step metabolic route used by many organisms to synthesize the aromatic amino acids phenylalanine, tyrosine, and tryptophan. This pathway is not found in animals, making these amino acids essential to obtain from diet. Shikimic acid is also a precursor for other important compounds like indole derivatives, alkaloids, and the active ingredient in Tamiflu.
ELIXIRS.pptx 22345q8w7e7eue7r7jsjsjajsjh
Elixirs are sweetened hydro-alcoholic liquids containing active drugs and other ingredients like flavorings and colorings. They typically contain 10-20% alcohol to dissolve both water-soluble and alcohol-soluble drugs and ingredients. There are two main types - medicated elixirs which contain therapeutic compounds, and non-medicated elixirs which are used as diluting agents. Elixirs are more readily prepared than syrups as they are more fluid and soluble ingredients are easily dissolved in the hydro-alcoholic mixture through simple mixing and heating when needed. They are also better than syrups at masking unpleasant tastes of substances.
