Why are drugs more addictive than something else that gives pleasure, such as eating chocolate?
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

Drugs affect the way signals are sent in the brain’s reward

circuit, which is a network of structures that is activated

when you do something pleasurable.

Dopamine is a chemical that helps signals pass between

nerve cells in the brain. When you do something enjoyable,

such as eating chocolate, dopamine levels increase in

the brain (see top diagram). Receptors detect the rise in

dopamine, which helps your brain remember the pleasurable

behavior so that you are more likely to want to do it again.

Using drugs, including opioids, causes a rise in

dopamine levels that is far greater than the increase from

other enjoyable activities (see bottom diagram). When

drugs are misused over time, the brain becomes used to the

extreme surge of dopamine that drugs deliver. This leads

to powerful cravings that make it very difficult to stop. The

state of being ruled by these cravings is addiction.

trapecia [35]

Answer: B. Paroxetine

Explanation:

The answer to the question is Paroxetine and this is because there has been a series of researches conducted at different laboratories and found undetectable serum levels in infants and there were also no reports of short term adverse effects.

Methotrexate on its part is a drug with known harmful effects and though there are very few researches that can actually prove its harmful effects in infant, it is a drug that can be passed to infants in small amounts and this logically implies that it can be dangerous to infants breastfeeding.

As for Fluoxetine, there has been a lot of researches which proved colic, fussiness and drowsiness in infants breastfeeding from mothers taking the drugs
