Title: List of Drugs which affect the Nervous system
Post by: mafhh on May 24, 2012
Hi,

I need to find a list of drugs, commonly found in homes, which cure by affecting the nervous system AND its mechanism; meaning how the drug works. Eg. does it affect the GABA receptors in the brain etc. or EG. i know that in Acetaminophen codeine the Codeine is a weak ยต-opiate receptor agonist and the majority of its analgesic affect is due to metabolism to morphine. Opiate analgesia is mediated through changes in the perception of pain at the spinal cord and higher levels in the CNS (Ref. http://rx-s.net/weblog/more/acetaminophen-codeine/#ixzz1vkAAXw5X).

It would be very kind if you could help. Im told there are such full lists on the internet but i dont seem to find one :(

Thankyou
:)
