As we know, hallucinogens are a type of drug that specialize in distorting the way a user perceives time, motion, colors, sounds, and self, or simply, causing psychological consequences onto their victims (Volkow 2015). However, the Foundation for a Drug-Free World (FDFW) prefers to link the term “hallucinations”, or psychological experiences in seeing images, hearing sounds and feeling sensations that seem very real but do not exist, to hallucinogens as a better and summarized definition replacement

They might also boost memory or mood or any other aspect of mental performance. These work in many different ways and their mechanism of action is part of what dictates their effects. Many nootropics are simply 'stimulants' along the lines of caffeine

facilitate the channel, opening mostly Cl-, but also facilitate 5-HT3 receptors that are NA+ and K+ channels, or the interactions inhibit the opening of channels usually NA+, CA+, and K+. Some of the receptors that it affects include, GABAA, GABAB, NMDA, serotonin, and Dopamine. The GABAergic systems play a major role in the reinforcing factors of alcohol consumption. Ethanol tends to enhance GABA activity, most likely by increasing GABA release from the neurons. However, the mechanism is not the same for

The question is, where does one draw the line between the symptoms being related to anxiety or just shyness acquired over time or inherited from one 's parents. That being

5-HT3 RECEPTOR ANTAGONISTS: MODULATOR OF ABUSE POTENTIAL OF DRUGS Abstract Serotonergic system in brain creates an important network for proper functioning of brain. It plays an integral role in regulating A9 as well as A10 dopaminergic neurons in basal neuronal circuit. The 5-HT3 receptors are found to be the only ionic receptors in serotonergic family of receptors regulating several important functions of brain. The abuse drugs lead to dopamine increase in nucleus accumbens. This paper reflects
