Description

Beginning with a detailed look at individual drugs and their mechanisms, Neurochemistry of Abused Drugs considers changes in neurotransmitter levels and discusses the relationship of these changes to the nature and phenomenon of addiction. New studies highlight the addictive capacity and neurochemical and neurobehavioral consequences of MDMA, methamphetamine, nicotine, and cocaine use. Recent discoveries regarding the neurotransmitter systems involved in each of these drugs reveal new therapeutic targets and novel compounds that may aid in alleviating addiction. Extensively referenced and citing numerous studies, this book provides unparalleled insight into the actions and potential inhibition of abused drugs.
