Chapter 430: Double-edged dagger
"However, we can't rule out another scenario either." Everyone looked at Tian Yuming, and Shi Jinyu also nodded in agreement, saying, "Yes, if it is caused by man, it will be even more troublesome." ”
Perimeter Lin asked strangely, "Can mental illness still be artificially caused?" ”
Liang explained: "Generally speaking, mental illness should be composed of three parts: biological factors, psychological factors, and social factors. But some medications do cause mental disorders. The most popular explanation of mental illness today is the biological one; A person with a mental illness may have a different brain structure or function, or have a different neurochemical response, whether caused by genetic or environmental damage. For example, many patients diagnosed with schizophrenia are found to have enlarged ventricles and atrophied gray matter in the brain. In addition, some people believe that an imbalance of neurotransmitters can also lead to mental illness.
Psychologists believe that conflicts, crises, tensions, and trauma can lead to mental illness, especially in a person who is easily hurt. For example, a child who witnesses a parent killing someone may develop feelings of depression and nervousness, and even develop post-traumatic stress disorder.
Sociologists believe that major events and situations can lead to mental illness. For example, people in the region have a higher chance of developing mental illness during social movements, wars, or suffering from natural or man-made diseases. Areas of poverty, impermanence and lack of resources and assistance also have a higher risk of mental illness than areas that are rich and stable.
In particular, drugs that act on the central nervous system. Of course, not everyone taking the above drugs will induce depression, and whether drug-induced depression will occur depends on the patient's personal quality, whether there is a family history of mental illness, the amount of medication, and the length of medication. ”
Shi Jinyu saw that everyone was still in a state of chaos, and said, "Xiao Liang, what kind of medicine do you think this kind of drug will feel like this?" ”
Liang Yien said: "Some things don't always have results with hard work, but there are things that can solve problems and cause problems. The most obvious example is antipsychotics, a class of drugs that are mainly used to treat schizophrenia and mental disorders with psychotic symptoms.
Antipsychotics are divided into two types: typical antipsychotics, traditional antipsychotics, atypical antipsychotics, and non-traditional antipsychotics. Typical antipsychotic drugs: Typical antipsychotics represented by chlorpromazine, mainly used for the treatment of schizophrenia and mania; Atypical antipsychoticsTraditional or typical antipsychotics are mostly simple dopamine D2 receptor blockers, and the current focus of antipsychotic drug development is on atypical antipsychotics.
Given the pharmacological effects of antipsychotics, adverse drug reactions are a determining factor in the choice of a drug in the case of many antipsychotics with similar effects. The occurrence of adverse reactions is related to different diseases, drug types, drug methods and doses, and concomitant medications. The use of antipsychotic drugs should avoid the combination of drugs as much as possible, advocate the principle of single medication, and pay attention to the interaction between drugs, especially the influence of drug metabolism and liver enzymes.
The most common drug should be regarded as an antibiotic drug, chloramphenicol is used for a long time, which can cause auditory hallucinations, visual hallucinations, disorientation and mental disorders, etc., and can cause polyneuritis. Synthromycin can cause confusion, excitement, anxiety, apathy, depression, horror, gibberish, visual hallucinations, auditory hallucinations, etc.; Penicillin G can produce disorientation, bizarre behavior, panic, irritability, hallucinations, etc.; Chloroquine is even more terrifying, causing fatigue, boredom, irritability, excitability, and mental disorders, and it can also cause personality changes.
There are also anti-tuberculosis drugs like isoniazid and isoniazid, which can cause depression, irritability, delusions, hallucinations, behavioral disorders, drowsiness, fatigue, dizziness, lack of concentration, and confusion.
Although blood pressure lowering drugs are common, they can also often cause mental disorders, such as reserpine can not only cause nightmares, emotional depression, and even suicidal tendencies, anxiety, ** loss, and Parkinson's disease.
Anti-arrhythmic drugs, bisisopropyramide can cause depression, irritability, delusions, pain, etc.; Procainamide can also cause vertigo, hallucinations, delusions; Propranolol can cause depression, drowsiness, hallucinations, delusions, nightmares, etc.; Digitalis is a drug for disorientation, depression, nightmares, euphoria, delusions, and visual hallucinations.
Anticonvulsive drugs, such as carbamazepine, can cause inattention, memory loss or extrapyramidal symptoms, drowsiness, depression and irritability, impulsive behavior, etc., as well as phenytoin: depression, irritability, aggressive behavior, hallucinations, delirium, extrapyramidal symptom clusters, intellectual disability, inattention.
Anti-Parkinsonian drugs, like levodopa, can cause irritability, emotional instability, anxiety, depression, suicide, antisocial behavior, hyperactivity. There is also amantadine: mood depression, anxiety, insomnia, confusion, excitability disorders. And Antan can also cause nervousness, delusions, hallucinations, and agitation.
Analgesics can also cause mental abnormalities, such as the common ibuprofen, which can cause nervousness, depression, insomnia, hallucinations, nightmares, and paresthesias. Indomethacin, on the other hand, can make people feel depressed, delusional, anxious, hostile, hallucinating, etc. Furans such as nitrofuracillin and furazolidone can cause confusion, gibberish, answering questions that are not asked, agitation, phobia, hallucinations, impulsivity, etc.
Barbiturates, such as phenobarbital, quick sleep, etc., can cause chronic poisoning when taken for a long time, which is manifested as high emotion, excitement, rhetoric, easy movement, emotional instability, manic-like state, and individual confusion. Other drugs like cimeguanidine can cause depression, insomnia, disorientation, hallucinations, delusions, etc.; Anticholinergics such as atropine can also cause restlessness, disorganized behavior, and delirium.
These things are quite common, and the side effects are quite terrible, but I have not seen serious consequences from taking medicine in normal amounts. ”
Perimeter Lin was confused by these chemical names and said, "So what should I do now?" ”
Shi Jinyu didn't answer Zhou Jielin's words, but asked Guan Nuo: "It's been so long, have you found the person who asked for a lawyer?" ”
Guan Nuo shook his head and said, "This is the strangest place, the phone left by this person is a black card without a real name system, and it is also a kind of space card." ”
