The relationship between dose and its effects on the exposed organism is of high significance in toxicology. Factors that influence chemical toxicity include the dosage, duration of exposure (whether it is acute or chronic), route of exposure, species, age, sex, and environment. Toxicology is a field of science that helps us understand the harmful effects that chemicals, substances, or situations, can have on people, animals, and the environment. Some refer to toxicology as the “Science of Safety” because as a field it has evolved from a science focused on studying poisons and adverse effects of chemical exposures, to a science devoted to studying safety. • Classification of Poison- • (1) Drugs (Medicine) = Acetaminophen (NSAID) Opioids (Analgesic) Barbiturates (Sedative-Hypnotics) Cholinergic Drugs Anticholinergic Drugs, Tricyclic antidepressant Drugs, Digoxin (Cardiac Glycosides) Amphetamine (CNS Stimulants) and other CNS Stimulants. • (2) Substance of Abuse = Alcohol, Cabins, Cocaine, LSD, Nicotine • (3) Gases (Including Industrial gases) = Carbon monoxide, Chlorine fumes, Hydrogen sulphides, Nitrogen dioxide, Cyanide • (4) Insecticides = Organophosphate, Organochlorine, Carbamates, Pyrethrines, Fungicides, Arsenic herbicides • (5) Rodenticides = Anticoagulants (Warfarin) • (6) Acid Substance (Corrosive) = Mineral acids such as- hydrochloric acid, Sulphuric acids, Nitric acids • (7) Detergents and antiseptics = Phenol, Cleaning agents, Caustic alkaline products • Acute toxicity describes the adverse effects of a substance that result either from a single exposure or from multiple exposures in a short period of time (usually less than 24 hours). To be described as acute toxicity, the adverse effects should occur within 14 days of the administration of the substance. • Chronic toxicity is defined as adverse effects occurring after the repeated or continuous administration of a test sample for a major part of the life span. Harmful effects caused in repeated exposure situations are sometimes called chronic toxicity effects. The following are some examples of chronic toxicity: Inhalation of certain acid vapours at concentrations may, over long periods of time, cause loss of tooth enamel, eventually leading to extensive tooth decay. • • Get in touch with the solution by just clicking following links- • Facebook Group- / solutionpharamcy • Facebook Page- / pharmavideo • New channel (Pharmacy Dictionary) - / @pharmacydictionary • Instagram- / solutionpharmacy • E-Mail for official and other work - [email protected] • LinkedIn- / pushpendrakpatel • #solutionpharmacy #Pharmacologyclass #GPATonlinetest
