Stimulants

Question: Stimulants? give me names of stimulant drugs. tell me thier effects on you if you took

Answer: Stimulants is a name given to several groups of drugs that tend to increase alertness and physical activity. The groups include pharmaceuticals such as amphetamines and the street drugs commonly called "uppers" or "speed," and cocaine. The more widely abused stimulants are amphetamines and cocaine. Cocaine has limited commercial use and its sale and possession are strictly controlled. Amphetamines are sometimes prescribed by physicians, and their availability makes them prime candidates for misuse. Used properly, amphetamines increase alertness and physical ability. They are often prescribed to counter the effects of narcolepsy, a rare disorder marked by episodes of uncontrollable sleep, and to help children with minimal brain dysfunction. Amphetamines increase the heart and respiration rates, increase blood pressure, dilate the pupils of the eyes, and decrease appetite. Other side effects include anxiety, blurred vision, sleeplessness, and dizziness. Abuse of amphetamines can cause irregular heartbeat and even physical collapse. A common form of abuse of amphetamines is by people who use them to counter the effects of sleeping pills (barbiturates) taken the night before. This roller coaster effect is damaging to the body. While amphetamine users may feel a temporary boost in self-confidence and power, the abuse of the drug can lead to delusions, hallucinations, and a feeling of paranoia. These feelings can cause a person to act in bizarre fashion, even violently. In most people, these effects disappear when they stop using the drug. Amphetamines are stolen or acquired through scams involving pharmacists or physicians who are duped into writing prescriptions for the drugs. These illegally acquired drugs are either sold as is or reduced to yellowish crystals that can be ingested in a number of ways, including sniffing and by injection. Another means of illegal sale of amphetamines involves "look-alike" drugs produced in illicit laboratories. One danger in these look-alikes is that the potency may vary from batch to batch. A person accustomed to using a weak look-alike may unwittingly suffer an overdose taking the same volume of a stronger look-alike. Symptoms Amphetamines are psychologically addictive. Users become dependent on the drug to avoid the "down" feeling they often experience when the drug's effect wears off. This dependence can lead a user to turn to stronger stimulants such as cocaine, or to larger doses of amphetamines to maintain a "high". People who abruptly stop using amphetamines often experience the physical signs of addiction, such as fatigue, long periods of sleep, irritability, and depression. How severe and prolonged these withdrawal symptoms are depends on the degree of abuse. That boost we get from that morning cup of coffee is the result of the caffeine that naturally occurs in coffee. Caffeine is a common stimulant and is found not only in coffee and tea, but also in soft drinks and other foods. It can also be bought over-the-counter in tablet form. Too much caffeine can cause anxiousness, headaches, and the "jitters." Caffeine is also addictive and a person who abruptly stops drinking coffee may experience withdrawal symptoms.

Question: What is the difference between narcotics and stimulants? What is the difference between narcotics and stimulants? Is cocaine a narcotic drug?

Answer: Narcotic drugs are those substances that induce sleep. In the legal context, narcotic refers to opium, opium derivatives, and their semisynthetic or totally synthetic substitutes. But Cocaine and coca leaves, which are classified as "narcotics" in the U.S. Controlled Substances Act (CSA), are technically not narcotics but stimulants. Some of the more popular narcotics drugs (in order of use popularity) are Heroin, opium, morphine, codeine, hydromorphone, meperidine, and methadone. Compared to some other drug types, narcotics use is easier to be detected by instant drug testing and screening tests. If you suspect any substance to be of the narcotic nature and want to confirm, you can follow the link below

Question: What is the reaction between bipolar medications and stimulants? I am bipolar and take lamictal 100mg. Recently my doctor prescribed me adderal 5mg to help me focus at work. He said this could work one of two ways: Good: It will help me focus Bad: It can make me go back into the mood swings and I won't realize it's not working. Should I forego the stimulants and just increase the dosage of my bipolar meds, or should I give this a try?

Answer: It's a bit of a science experiment. Nice thing about adderal - you'll be able to tell right away if it helps or not. Ask a friend or family member to observe and tell your moods if seem unstable. I recently started (now stoped) taking Staterra for my add, in addition to the Welbutrin I've been taking for the past several years for depression. It was great for the ADD but made my heart race and made me feel edgy - I checked in with my daughter who confirmed I was also acting edgy. So my MD switched me to Provigil - which keeps me awake, but not focused. Good luck!

Question: What happens if you take too many diet pill/stimulants? I took TrimSpa at one point, and it directs you to take 2 pills in the morning, at lunch, and at night. Now I'm taking Leptopril, and it says to take 2 pills at luch and dinner. I realize that the amount of whatever it is is probably different, but it seems more reasonable to take stimulants in the morning and midday, not at night. So what would happen if I took the same dosage as the TrimSpa with the Leptopril?

Answer: First of all, it can increase your pulse rate to dangerous levels and possible a SVT (supra ventricular tachycardia). Dont do it without consulting your physician.

Question: Are there any safe, legal appetite stimulants that you don't need a prescription for? I am a healthy person. I don't have AIDS or any other terminal illness, but sometimes I just don't have an appetite when I should. However, my appetite is getting better with time and with me eating on a more regular basis. It just makes me furious to see all these legal speeds and appetite suppressants but NO appetite stimulants. The only one I've seen that was legal, you needed a prescription for and it could possibly cause kidney and liver damage. Marijuana is much safer. The government should just realize it and legalize it.

Answer: You have no idea how shocked I was to come across your post- I have the same problem, you are not alone. I try to eat small amounts as often as I can throughout the day. However, trying to eat a full meal is always a challenge for me-after a few bites, I feel absolutely stuffed and nauseous. I would love to find a legal alternative, available to healthy people who just want to enjoy their food.

Question: Can concerta and stimulants used to treat ADHD have negative effects on my singing voice? I hope to someday be a profesional musician, but recently I been having increasingly annoying problems with pitch and tonality. My chorus teacher blames it on vocal tension. I have read that vocal tension is caused by stimulants such as caffeine. Unfortunately, I also have ADD and take concerta twice a day to help me with my schoolwork. Is this hurting my voice? Is there a solution that allows me to both practice singing and still be able to function at school?

Answer: Now I'm not sure on this...but from what I understand...yes concerta and those other ADHD and ADD medications are stimulants to most people, but from what I understand, they act as depressants to people with ADD and ADHD, and I've taken concerta, adderall, and ritalin, and I never had any problems singing along with the radio, but of course each person is different. If you really think it could be the concerta, I'd ask a doctor if it's possible. As another person said, if possible, don't take the concerta when you have to sing, but if it's during or after school then you kinda have to take it to be able to concentrate during your other classes. I'm not 100% positive on what I said, but I'm pretty sure about it, I'd ask a doctor. Hope this helped.
