LSD was first brought to attention in the United States in 1949. The document discusses the history, nicknames, effects, legal status, dangers, treatments for addiction, and bibliography related to LSD. LSD is currently only legal in the Netherlands and legal for research in the U.S., but illegal for recreational use. Effects can include hallucinations, changes in mood and personality, increased heart rate, and nausea. Treatments for LSD addiction include counseling, lifestyle changes, antidepressants, and drug therapy.
Lsd & Other Hallucinogens
Hallucinogens are a category of drugs that can cause altered perceptions such as sights, sounds, feelings, and the sense of time. They have been used throughout history by various cultures for spiritual purposes or medical use. Common hallucinogenic drugs include LSD, psilocybin mushrooms, PCP, mescaline, ketamine, and ecstasy. While some can be physically dangerous, all can potentially cause psychological dependence or long-term mental health issues from continued use. Side effects range from changes in mood to more severe reactions like convulsions or death.
Ecstasy presentation
This document discusses ecstasy (MDMA), including its history of being synthesized in 1912, subjective effects like heightened closeness and tachycardia, potential side effects like confusion and depression, short-term effects such as nausea and increased body temperature, symptoms of overdose like rapid heartbeat and panic attacks, and recent research finding that MDMA-assisted psychotherapy can help treat PTSD.
Drugs of Abuse: Hallucinogens
The document provides information about various hallucinogenic drugs like PCP, LSD, and ecstasy. It discusses the pharmacological effects of these drugs on the brain and body. It also covers the potential symptoms of toxicity and overdose from hallucinogen use as well as myths and rumors surrounding these drugs. The goal is to educate students about hallucinogens and their consequences in order to help students make informed choices.
Ppt drugs
The document discusses several types of prohibited and regulated drugs, including their effects. It describes how opium, cocaine, LSD and other substances are prohibited due to their hallucinogenic and narcotic properties. Regulated drugs include sedatives, amphetamines and hypnotics. The health effects of various drugs like marijuana, methamphetamine, inhalants, sedatives, MDMA are then outlined, ranging from both immediate short term impacts to longer term risks of psychological and physical dependency, organ damage, and other health issues.
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.
Hallucinogen related disorders
Hallucinogens have been used for thousands of years and work by depleting serotonin levels in the brain, causing a "trip" with unpredictable effects. Users may experience synesthesia where senses are mixed, like seeing sounds, as well as depersonalization, extreme sensations, and flashbacks years later. While hallucinogens are not physically addictive, psychological addiction is possible. More education and prevention programs are needed to curb rising abuse rates of drugs like LSD and psychedelic mushrooms. The full effects of hallucinogens on the brain remain unclear.
Ecstasy and its Affects Socially, Mentally, and Physically
The document summarizes the history, effects, and risks of the drug ecstasy (MDMA). It was first created in Germany in the early 1900s potentially as a diet pill. Ecstasy can be ingested orally or through other methods like snorting or injection. It is classified as a class A drug due to its harmful effects. Short term effects include increased heart rate and euphoria, while long term use can damage the brain and serotonin and dopamine systems. Use is also associated with anxiety, paranoia, memory loss, and potential organ damage. Mixing ecstasy with other drugs or alcohol increases health risks and can potentially cause overdose.

Ecstasy, also known as MDMA, is a synthetic drug that produces euphoric and hallucinogenic effects. It is classified as a Schedule I drug with no recognized medical uses. Short term effects include euphoria and increased energy that can last up to 6 hours, followed by potential side effects like paranoia, nausea, and sweating. Long term risks include anxiety, depression, and psychosis from withdrawal. Ecstasy use can create a psychological dependence in some users. Physical dependence is less common and usually only occurs after taking large doses over a short period of time.
Power point effects of drug abuse
Drug abuse hurts the people who take drugs AND the people around them, including families, kids, and babies who aren't yet born. Drug abuse hurts the body and the brain, sometimes forever.
Hallucinogens (1)
Hallucinogens can be taken in pill or dissolvable strip form and have street names like Acid and Looney Toons. They act on the central nervous system and contain different chemicals depending on the drug. Hallucinogens can cause harmful effects like hallucinations and impact the nervous, cardiovascular, digestive, and respiratory systems. There are no medical uses for hallucinogens and mixing them with alcohol can have euphoric but dangerous effects. Long term use can negatively impact family and social relationships.
Intro to drugs
This document defines drugs and categorizes them as legal or illegal. It describes the six categories of addictive drugs: cannabis, hallucinogens, inhalants, narcotics, depressants, and stimulants. For each category, it provides examples of drugs that fall within that category and discusses possible short-term and long-term effects of use. The document emphasizes that illegal drugs can harm health, lead to addiction and dependence, and have serious legal consequences.
Drug and addiction
The document discusses drug abuse and addiction. It defines drug addiction as a disease that leads to problems with tolerance and withdrawal from substances as well as distress from substance use. It then lists some commonly abused drugs like alcohol, amphetamines, steroids, caffeine, cannabis, cocaine, and ecstasy and their effects. Next, it provides signs of drug abuse like feeling the need to use regularly, failing to stop using, spending money on drugs, and risky behavior while under the influence. Finally, it states that drug abuse and addiction depend on environmental factors like family influences and peer pressure, as well as genetic factors.

Ecstasy
This document outlines what ecstasy and MDMA are, how they work in the brain, and their potential risks. Ecstasy, also known as MDMA, is an illegal psychoactive drug that produces feelings of increased energy and euphoria by releasing high levels of serotonin. While it can cause short-term euphoria, ecstasy use also carries health risks like dehydration, organ failure, and interactions with other drugs that have led to deaths. Long-term use has been linked to depression and addiction in some users. The document advises treating potential overdoses calmly and notes that there are no pharmacological treatments for ecstasy addiction currently, though behavioral recovery programs can support long-term abstin
Salvia teachback
Salvia is an herb in the mint family native to Central and South America that produces hallucinogenic effects. It is commonly chewed, smoked, or vaporized. The effects are short-lived, lasting 1-30 minutes, as it targets opioid receptors in the brain, sometimes causing hallucinations or altered perceptions. While its effects are uncertain, it is currently legal in most states and more likely to be used experimentally by 12-23 year olds than as a party drug.
Substance Abuse Disorders
This document discusses substance use disorders and various drugs of abuse. It defines substance use disorder as substance abuse and dependence, also known as chemical dependence, which describes the compulsive use of drugs or alcohol and inability to stop using them despite problems. It then discusses the main types of substances of abuse like alcohol, narcotics, sedatives, stimulants, anti-anxiety drugs, and hallucinogens. Treatment options discussed include counseling, medication, and self-help approaches.

Drug and addiction
Drug abuse is characterized by a destructive pattern of substance use that leads to problems or distress. Drug addiction, also called substance dependence, is a disease involving tolerance to or withdrawal from the substance as well as social, work, or school problems caused by use. Commonly abused drugs include alcohol, amphetamines, anabolic steroids, caffeine, cannabis, cocaine, and ecstasy. Signs of drug abuse include feeling the need to use regularly, failing to stop using, spending money on drugs despite inability to afford them, and risky behaviors while under the influence. Drug abuse and addiction are influenced by environmental factors like family attitudes and peer groups, as well as genetic factors.

Drugs 2nd 9 weeks project
Ecstasy was first created in Germany in the early 1900s and was controversially tested in the US as a truth serum in 1953. It became the first psychoactive drug approved for human testing in 1993. Ecstasy, also known as MDMA, can be orally ingested, snorted, injected, or taken as a suppository and has street names like Molly or Vitamin X. Both short-term and long-term use can damage the nervous, cardiovascular, respiratory, and digestive systems and negatively impact mental health. Mixing ecstasy with alcohol or other drugs increases health risks. While some studies show potential medical uses, ecstasy is classified as an illegal Class A drug with criminal penalties.
What is LSD
LSD is a potent hallucinogenic drug synthesized from lysergic acid. It was first synthesized in 1938 but its effects were not realized until years later. It sparked interest as a psychiatric drug to treat mental illness and enhance therapy or creativity. While hundreds of thousands were prescribed it, it ultimately found no real medical use. LSD takes effect within an hour, causing unpredictable changes in sensory perception and emotions that can last over 12 hours. It carries risks of dangerous physical effects and "bad trips" involving extremely distressing hallucinations, paranoia, or trauma.
Lsd
LSD is a potent hallucinogenic drug derived from lysergic acid that is typically taken orally. Users experience intense distortions of sensory perception, emotions, and sense of self that can last up to 12 hours. High doses of LSD can cause extreme hallucinations, altered senses of time and reality, panic, and feelings of despair. While LSD is not considered addictive, users may experience flashbacks of their trips long after use. The specific effects of LSD and other hallucinogens on the human brain remain largely unknown due to a lack of controlled research studies.

Legally Restricted Drugs in Our Society - Part II
Hallucinogens
This week, we turn to the very fascinating topics of hallucinogenic drugs and marijuana. Like some of the previous drugs we have studied, these drugs have existed in various natural forms for many thousands of years and, at various times in societies, have been held in high regard and, at other times, viewed with contempt and derision. It is interesting to note how societal norms, the practices of various religions, political and social movements, medical treatments, and expectations with regard to behavior all influence whether the manufacture, distribution, and use of these classes of drugs are deemed appropriate or not across societies. In fact, you can see the varying opinions that institutions and groups of individuals have held regarding this class of substances as they have been described as “mind expanding” to those who are accepting and “mind disrupting” by those who are alarmed by their use over the years. It is interesting to note that there has only been one documented fatality that can be ascribed to LSD ingestion since 1960.

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.

Illegal drugs
This document discusses different types of drugs and their effects. It begins by defining illegal drugs as drugs regulated by law that may be prescribed but are otherwise illegal to sell or use. It then discusses why illegal drug use is dangerous, noting risks of permanent brain and body damage, addiction, suicide, accidents, crime and disease transmission. Reasons people begin using drugs are also summarized as including experimentation, escaping problems, peer pressure and believing drugs solve issues. The stages of drug use are defined as regular use, tolerance, dependence and addiction. Finally, drugs that commonly lead to other drug use are listed as alcohol, tobacco and marijuana.
Drug And The Central Nervous System .2
Drug addiction, also known as drug dependence, is a disorder of the brain brought on by the use of psychoactive drugs that affect processes in the brain related to perception, emotion, and motivation. People are diagnosed as drug dependent if they have experienced three or more of the following symptoms at some time during the previous year: tolerance; withdrawal; inability to cut down on drug use; spending a lot of time obtaining or using the drug; reducing important activities due to drug use; and continuing drug use despite physical or psychological problems. Psychoactive drugs include depressants, hallucinogens, opiates, and stimulants, and can seriously disrupt the brain's neurotransmitter systems and negatively impact health.
Lsd
LSD can temporarily impair judgment and increase risk of accidents. Users may experience "flashbacks" where they re-experience effects of LSD days after use, though these are generally short-lived and mild. Albert Hofmann first synthesized LSD in 1938 while researching medical applications. LSD has unpredictable short-term effects like dilated pupils and altered sensations, but can cause hallucinations at high doses. Long-term effects may include flashbacks or developing psychoses like schizophrenia. While not addictive, users can build a tolerance requiring higher doses for effects. LSD is used by teenagers and young adults, especially at concerts and raves.
Drugs
Drug addiction is a brain disorder caused by psychoactive drugs that affect processes related to perception, emotion, and motivation. It is diagnosed when three or more of the following occur within a year: increased tolerance, withdrawal symptoms, impaired control over drug use. Psychoactive drugs like depressants, hallucinogens, opiates, and stimulants disrupt neurotransmitter function in the brain, altering mood and behavior. Long term effects include physical and mental health problems, while withdrawal can be life threatening for heavy users of depressants.
Lsd presentation
LSD is a hallucinogenic drug synthesized in 1938. It causes visual hallucinations and alters perceptions of time and self. LSD is typically taken orally by absorbing blotter paper, liquid drops, or tablets that have been soaked in the drug. Effects begin within 90 minutes and can last up to 12 hours, causing dilated pupils, increased heart rate, and sensations that sounds and colors are merging. Around 200,000 people use LSD for the first time each year according to surveys, taking it for its psychedelic and recreational effects.
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.
Lsd
LSD was created by Albert Hofmann while searching for a stimulant. Its psychedelic effects were discovered when Hofmann accidentally consumed some. Its use increased in the 1960s due to psychologist Timothy Leary advocating its recreational use. LSD alters perceptions and mood but can have harmful physical, mental, and social effects like hallucinations, panic attacks, and difficulty determining what is real. While it may have medical uses, its legal status and unpredictable effects when mixed with other substances make its recreational use dangerous.
Drug project
LSD comes from a fungus called Ergot that grows on rye and wheat. It is classified as a hallucinogen and has no accepted medical uses. When taken, LSD can cause hallucinations and alter a person's perception of reality. It affects multiple body systems like the respiratory system where it can lead to cardiac arrest or the digestive system where it can cause ulcers or liver damage. Mixing LSD with other drugs increases the risks of an adverse reaction like unconsciousness or death. Long term use has been linked to disrupted sleep and impacts on serotonin levels in the brain.

This document discusses how drugs and alcohol affect the human mind and body. It defines drugs as any chemical substance that alters normal bodily functions when absorbed. It notes that drugs are used for medication, recreation, spiritual/religious purposes, and nootropics. Drugs affect the body by being stimulants in small doses, sedatives in greater amounts, and poisons in large amounts. Drugs like caffeine and arsenic are used as examples. The document also discusses how certain drugs like LSD directly affect the mind by creating mental images and memories that can be reactivated. It states that alcohol is also a drug that can pose long term health threats by being high in calories and lacking nutrients. Both the positive
Lsd
LSD, also known as acid, is a hallucinogenic drug that was first synthesized in 1938. It alters the user's perceptions and mental state by agonizing D2 receptors in the brain. Some key points about LSD include:
- It is administered orally and its effects can last 8-12 hours, causing visual hallucinations and distorted senses of time and identity.
- Potential short-term side effects include anxiety, panic attacks, depression, while long-term effects may include flashbacks or psychosis.
- While it was once used experimentally in psychotherapy, its medical uses are limited due to its strong psychoactive effects. Mixing LSD and alcohol can potentially cause respiratory
HALLUCINOGENS-PPT.pptx
Hallucinogens are substances that cause powerful changes in sensory perception and induce hallucinations. Common hallucinogens include LSD, mescaline, psilocybin, and MDMA. Hallucinogen use has been associated with panic attacks, persisting perception disorders, psychosis, and mood disorders. The discovery of LSD in 1943 increased misuse due to its potency and ease of production. Hallucinogens work by interfering with neurotransmitter action or binding to receptor sites. Effects of LSD and PCP include hallucinations, altered cognition and mood, feelings of detachment, and psychosis. Flashbacks and persisting disorders may occur after hallucinogen use.
Ecstasy
Ecstasy was created in 1912 by Merck pharmaceutical company and was used for psychological warfare testing and psychotherapy in the 1950s-1960s. Since 1985, ecstasy has been an illegal drug due to its unsafe effects. It is usually taken orally but can also be injected or inhaled. Short term effects include increased heart rate and blood pressure while long term effects involve brain damage, liver failure, and lung damage. There are also legal and social consequences to ecstasy use such as jail time and strained relationships.

Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapy
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.

GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS AND GASTRITIS
Osvaldo Bernardo Muchanga
Gastrointestinal Infections
GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS result from the ingestion of pathogens that cause infections at the level of this tract, generally being transmitted by food, water and hands contaminated by microorganisms such as E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Vibrio cholerae, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus, Rotavirus among others that are generally contained in feces, thus configuring a FECAL-ORAL type of transmission.
Among the factors that lead to the occurrence of gastrointestinal infections are the hygienic and sanitary deficiencies that characterize our markets and other places where raw or cooked food is sold, poor environmental sanitation in communities, deficiencies in water treatment (or in the process of its plumbing), risky hygienic-sanitary habits (not washing hands after major and/or minor needs), among others.
These are generally consequences (signs and symptoms) resulting from gastrointestinal infections: diarrhea, vomiting, fever and malaise, among others.
The treatment consists of replacing lost liquids and electrolytes (drinking drinking water and other recommended liquids, including consumption of juicy fruits such as papayas, apples, pears, among others that contain water in their composition).
To prevent this, it is necessary to promote health education, improve the hygienic-sanitary conditions of markets and communities in general as a way of promoting, preserving and prolonging PUBLIC HEALTH.
Gastritis and Gastric Health
Gastric Health is one of the most relevant concerns in human health, with gastrointestinal infections being among the main illnesses that affect humans.
Among gastric problems, we have GASTRITIS AND GASTRIC ULCERS as the main public health problems. Gastritis and gastric ulcers normally result from inflammation and corrosion of the walls of the stomach (gastric mucosa) and are generally associated (caused) by the bacterium Helicobacter pylor, which, according to the literature, this bacterium settles on these walls (of the stomach) and starts to release urease that ends up altering the normal pH of the stomach (acid), which leads to inflammation and corrosion of the mucous membranes and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
In addition to bacterial infections, gastritis and gastric ulcers are associated with several factors, with emphasis on prolonged fasting, chemical substances including drugs, alcohol, foods with strong seasonings including chilli, which ends up causing inflammation of the stomach walls and/or corrosion. of the same, resulting in the appearance of wounds and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
Among patients with gastritis and/or ulcers, one of the dilemmas is associated with the foods to consume in order to minimize the sensation of pain and discomfort. Hemodialysis: Chapter 5, Dialyzers Overview - Dr.Gawad
