(Pharmacology) Are chemical substance that affect a person in such a way as to bring about physiological, emotional, or behavioral change. (DDB) It can either be natural and synthetic/artificial .
Shabu Natural - anything that comes from nature. Synthetic - anything that is produced artificially or processed in the laboratory. Plants (Marijuana) Ecstasy
DRUG ABUSE Deliberate use of medically useful drugs which have the capacity to alter mood and behavior without the benefit of a prescription. It refers to the use of a medically useful mood-altering drug for a purpose different from the one for which the drug has been indicated.
It refers to the use of a drug with such frequency that it causes physical or mental harm to the user or impairs social functioning.
DRUG DOSAGE A dose of a drug is the amount taken at one time . The doses taken become an extremely important part of drug abuse.
Minimal dose – the amount needed to treat or heal , that is, the smallest amount of drug that will produce a therapeutic effect. Maximal dose – the largest amount of a drug that will produce a desired therapeutic effect without any accompanying symptoms of toxicity.
Toxic Dose – the amount of drug that produces untoward effect or symptom of poisoning. Abusive dose – the amount needed to produce the side effects and action desired by an individual who improperly uses it. Lethal dose – the amount of drug that will cause death.
DRUG DEPENDENCE Also called as DRUG ADDICTION. The users continue to take a drug over an extended period of time . The users find it difficult to stop using the drug . The users stop taking their drug – only if their supply of the drug is cut off, or if they are forced to quit for any reason – they will undergo painful physical or mental distress. Drug dependence may lead to drug abuse – especially the illegal drugs
Overdose – when too much of a drug is taken into the physiological system of the human body , there may be an over extension of its effects. Allergy – some drugs cause the release of histamine giving rise to allergic symptoms such as dermatitis, swelling, fall in blood pressure, suffocation and death.
Idiosyncrasy – it refers to the individual reaction to a drug, food, etc. for unexplained reasons . Morphine for example, which sedates all men, stimulates and renders some women maniacal behaviors. Poisonous Property – drugs are chemical and some of them have the property of being general protoplasmic poisons . Side Effects – some drugs are not receptors for one organ but receptors of other organ as well . The effect in the other organs may constitute a side effect, which are most of the time unwanted.
MEDICAL USES OF DRUGS Analgesics – are drugs that relieve pain. However, they may produce the opposite effects on somebody who suffers from peptic ulcer or gastric irritation. Antibiotics – are drugs that combat or control infectious organisms . Antipyretics – those that can lower body temperature or fever due to infection .
Antihistamines – those that control or combat allergic reactions. This drug usually causes drowsiness. Contraceptives – Drugs that prevent the meeting of the egg cell and sperm cell or prevent the ovary from releasing egg cells.
Decongestants – those that relieve congestion of the nasal passages. Expectorants – those that can ease the expulsion of the mucus and phlegm from the lungs to the throat. Laxatives – those that stimulate defecation and encourage bowel movement.
Sedatives and tranquilizers – are those that can calm and quiet the nerves and relieve anxiety without causing depression and clouding of the mind. Vitamins – those substances necessary for normal growth and development and proper functioning of the body.
TYPES OF DRUG DEPENDENCE A. PHYSICAL DEPENDENCE - can only be visible when drug intake is decreased or stopped and an involuntary illness called the withdrawal syndrome occurs.
FORMS OF PHYSICAL DEPENDENCE Tolerance Occurs when the body becomes accustomed to a drug as the drug is repeatedly taken in the same dose. It now requires ever- increasing larger doses to achieve the same desired effect. Addiction Severe craving for the drug even to the point of interfering with the person’s ability to function normally.
B. PSYCHOLOGICAL DEPENDENCE – Exhibited when a user relies on a drug to achieve a feeling of well- being .
FORMS OF PSYCHOLOGICAL DEPENDENCE Habituation Characterized by continuous desire for a drug. A person believes that the drug is needed to function at work or home because drugs often produce an elated/ excited emotional state.
CLASSIFICATIONS OF DRUG ABUSERS Situational Users Those who use drugs to keep them awake or for additional energy to perform an important work. Individual may or may not exhibit psychological dependence. Spree Users School age users who take drugs for “kicks’, an adventurous daring experience, or as a means of fun . There may be some degree of psychological dependence but little physical dependence due to the mixed pattern of use.
