Trazodone Research Papers

The purpose of this paper is to go into extensive research on Alprazolam aka “Xanax” in the duration of this paper, it will be evident the impact that this drug can have on the human body and in my instances, it will be apparent not only how helpful it can be but how life damaging it can be, if not taken safely and carefully. This report will go into extensive detail on the psychodynamics of the drug as well as the pharmacokinetics. Alprazolam is quite powerful and mind altering the affects that it can have on the body can be very intense, especially if not taking carefully which is why it is vital to make sure that you take the recommended doses taken by your doctor, failure to do so can result in death.

There has been a mystery of the cause of death of pop singer Prince. Some claim he died from an overdose of a drug that goes by the name of “Percocet”. While others claim he died from aids.

The location of Terezin was in Prague Czech Republic.97,297 people died at Terezin.Terezin served as a transit camp, ghetto labor camp, and concentration camp. Terezin was founded by the Austrain emperor Joseph II. The camp was liberated on May 8 1945.The last one I'm talking about is our trip to the Museum of Tolerance. So that's what I'm talking about on the camp Terezin.

“Matty Rix grew up in a community that had much to offer a happy, adventurous boy. He took advantage of the open spaces and the forests and streams, whether riding his four-wheeler with friends or fishing and hunting with his father. But small-town, rural southern Maine also had something else to offer its curious youth: A steady supply of pain pills and other prescription drugs.” (Richardson, 2011)

Lexapro is a widely prescribed selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor that is used in the treatment of depression and anxiety. Lexapro is also known by its generic name of escitalopram or s-citalopram.

New drugs present an opportunity for new money. People have not seen this before and advertisements on television, in magazines, and online present their drug as some kind of miraculous discovery. The world is constantly changing and improving, we know new and better technology is coming out daily, and we believe the same about health care, to a certain extend we are correct. Over the past hundred years we have drastically improved healthcare, for prescription drugs with a brand name, it needs to be understood that this is a for profit business. Advertised prescription drugs are not a news flash from the medical field, they are a ploy from a pharmaceutical company to encourage consumers to purchase their brand. Aspirin, while having a multitude

Prescription drugs killed 47,055 people last year. Marijuana killed none. “You would have to smoke 15,000 joints in 20 minutes for it to become toxic” (Joel Warner). It is not a drug you can easily overdose on. That’s why it is a good choice for people who are struggling mentally or physically. It has been proven to help people suffering from PTSD, anxiety, and depression. It slows the effects of alzheimer's and helps with the pain that chemotherapy causes. It would be like giving these people prescription drugs like the ones used to help with depression and anxiety, except it isn’t harmful to the body at all.

As doctors write more prescriptions, the number of people who abuse and become addicted to these substances increases. In the United States, we are currently experiencing an epidemic of drug abuse and addiction. One of the most commonly abuse prescription drugs in America is a benzodiazepine drug known as Xanax (or Alprazolam), due in part to the drug’s availability. In 2011, approximately 50 million people had a prescription for Xanax. This number was greater than the number of prescriptions for similar medications like Ativan and Valium. Xanax is also a popular choice for drug abuse, because it can produce a powerful high when it is misused. In fact, in 2011, about 61,000 people sought treatment for

Narcotics are central nervous system depressants that relieve pain without causing the user to lose consciousness. It is this reason many people choose to abuse prescription narcotics.

The purpose of the research paper was to examine and compile the narratives of different individuals experiencing chronic pain and receiving treatment for their opiate addiction at a methadone clinic. The article brought up a fascinating point that both chronic pain and prescription painkiller abuse (including drugs that contain Oxycodone) is on the rise, and although this is openly a United States based, I feel it is still relevant to my research.

Surprisingly, Chaz has little to no systemic risk factors. Answering yes to only two medical conditions on his health history, high blood pressure and thyroid disease, he is taking two medications to combat these diseases. The first medication is Micardis. This is an angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) used to treat hypertension. ARBs work by preventing the hormone, Angiotensin II, from having an effect on our body. When Angiotensin II is released into the blood stream it causes vasoconstriction and water retention, in turn raising blood pressure; if we prevent the effects of Angiotensin II the result will be vasodilation and less water retention, leading to a lower blood pressure. (Angiotensin receptor blockers (ARBs) – blood pressure medication,

In 1990, Pfizer was granted a new patent for an invention of a new use of sertraline and its salts for treating premature ejaculation (Bick, 1990)

Thiazolidinediones or glitazone are a class of oral antidiabetic agents. Thiazolidinediones are a synthetic ligand for the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor g (PPARg). Troglitazone was the first thiazolidinedione antidiabetic agent that approved for the clinical use by the US in 1997. Troglitazone decreased hepatic glucose production, lowers blood glucose levels through increased glucose uptake by skeletal muscle, and increased insulin sensitivity of the target tissue in animal models of metabolic impairment. These pharmacological effects are exerted through the PPARg-dependent transcription of genes which involved in glucose and lipid metabolism and also in energy homeostasis. Troglitazone represents a model of an idiosyncratic

Alprazolam or Xanax is a medication, an anxiolytic (anti-anxiety agent), a medium-term benzodiazepine derivative that is used to treat panic disorders, anxiety neuroses such as anxiety disorder or social phobia. Alprazolam is close to triazolam by its chemical structure, differs from the absence of the Cl atom at phenyl at position. Alprazolam has less pronounced hypnotic effect. It is used mainly for short-term withdrawal of feelings of anxiety and fear.
