How do SSRI's function?
A. SSRI's prevent the reuptake of sugars at the terminal buttons increasing the amount of energy in
pre-synaptic receptor cells
B. SSRI's treat schizophrenia by reducing the atrophy of cortical grey matter
C. SSRI's act as ions and help in the transmission of various neurotransmitters
D. SSRI's increase the amount of dopamine present in the brain by preventing it's reuptake
E. SSRI's prevent the reuptake of serotonin at the terminal buttons increasing the amount of
serotonin in synaptic gaps which can bind to receptor cells
F. SSRI's prevent mania and anxiety by reducing the amount of serotonin present in the blood stream
- ANSWER: E.
Amphetamine and cocaine and most other excitatory drugs work by:
