Psychopharmacology is a field of study that explores the effects of drugs and medications on the human mind, behavior, and emotions. It delves into the interactions between chemicals (pharmacology) and mental processes (psychology). This interdisciplinary science focuses on understanding how various drugs, including prescription medications, affect the brain's neurochemistry and, consequently, influence a person's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. this ppt contains introductory portion of psychopharmacology
This document discusses psychopharmacology and psychotropic drugs. It defines psychopharmacology as the study of drugs used to treat psychiatric disorders. Psychotropic or psychoactive drugs affect the brain and nervous system and alter feelings, emotions, and consciousness.

Psychopharmacology has undergone several revolutions with the development of vaccines, antibiotics, tranquilizers, and oral contraceptives. Key principles of drug action include dose-response relationships, tolerance, and individual variability. Psychotropic drugs work in the brain through processes of absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion. Their effects depend on pharmacodynamics at synaptic receptors as agonists, antagonists, or indirect agents. Common drug classes discussed include antipsychotics, antidepressants, anxiolytics, and

Drug addiction is a complex disease that affects the mind, body, and spirit. It changes the structure and functioning of the brain. Without treatment, these brain changes can be long lasting. Addiction is chronic and progressive, and if left untreated, it can be fatal. Individuals struggling with drug addiction often feel they cannot function normally without drugs, leading to issues that impact their lives. Over time, these side effects can worsen and become fatal without treatment.
This document discusses antipsychotic drugs, including their definition, classifications, pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, indications, side effects, and the nurse's role in administering them. Antipsychotic drugs, also called neuroleptics or major tranquilizers, are primarily used to treat schizophrenia and other psychotic states. They work by reducing dopamine neurotransmission in the limbic system and mesocortical regions. Antipsychotics are classified as typical or atypical and are used to treat conditions like schizophrenia, mania, and dementia. Common side effects include extrapyramidal symptoms, sedation, and orthostatic hypotension. Nurses monitor for side effects and educate patients on safety when taking these
OTC drugs are medications that can be purchased without a prescription. They include analgesics, cough/cold medicines, and antacids. OTC drugs are cheaper and more convenient than prescription drugs.

Barbiturates are depressant drugs that can induce sleep and relieve tension. When taken in small doses, they cause decreased responsiveness and loss of muscle coordination. Higher doses between half and one dose will make a person feel sedated or "high", while one dose will make them sleep. Five times the normal dose can cause coma and 10 doses can potentially be lethal. The Comprehensive Dangerous Drug Act of 2002 defined drug users as victims and allowed for rehabilitation instead of punishment in an effort to help them live productively without drugs.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
