What are bioavailability enhancers?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Bioavailability enhancers are substances that can increase the absorption and availability of a drug or nutrient in the body. They work by improving the solubility of the compound, protecting it from degradation in the gastrointestinal tract, or enhancing its permeability across cell membranes, ultimately leading to higher levels of the compound reaching the systemic circulation.

Can an overdose of diabetic medicine cause brain damage?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes, an overdose of diabetic medication, especially certain types such as insulin or sulfonylureas, can potentially cause brain damage. When these medications are taken in excess, they can lead to dangerously low blood sugar levels (hypoglycemia), which can affect the brain's function and, if severe and prolonged, can cause brain damage.

Hypoglycemia deprives the brain of the glucose it needs to function properly. Symptoms of hypoglycemia can range from mild confusion and dizziness to seizures, coma, and in extreme cases, brain damage or death if not treated promptly.

It's crucial for individuals taking diabetic medications to follow their prescribed dosage and monitor their blood sugar levels regularly to avoid overdoses and the associated risks. If an overdose is suspected or if someone experiences symptoms of hypoglycemia, immediate medical attention should be sought to prevent complications.

Can marijuana cause overdose with coffee?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No. The toxic amounts of each would require stupidly large amounts consumed in the space of minutes - something like either literally a tonne of weed or hundreds of cups of coffee in less than 15 minutes. So while both THC and caffeine can cause overdose, actually doing so is nigh impossible.

Can you overdose on coffee?

User Avatar

Asked by Equinoxia

Coffee has different effects on different people but an overdose of coffee can lead to heart palpitations, hypertension and even death.

In my case six to seven drip filter coffees per day led to irritability, hypertension, a feeling of panic which culminated in my passing out while driving home from work.

The passing out was probably a seizure caused by the coffee since had been having feelings of Deja-vu and unreality all day as well as a feeling of panic.

Fortunately I wasn't hurt but my car was a write-off. It could have killed me.

What happens if a guy takes 5 sleeping pills and whiskey at the same time?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Depending on your body weight, most likely you'll first be slightly over the legal blood alcohol limit for driving, then soon after you'll be asleep AND over the blood alcohol limit for driving.

A very dangerous combination for driving. Otherwise not wise but not likely to be deadly.

(One assumes modern sleeping aids).

Can you overdose on Protein?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Overconsumption of protein can make you fat; proteins have a caloric value just like sugars and fats do. The amino acids that make up protein can be converted into sugars through a process called gluconeogenesis.

Also, certain proteins are themselves toxic (rattlesnake venom is a protein).

What is more is that if you eat too much protein, even high-quality food protein, your body breaks it down into nitrogen compounds such as urea. Too much of that sort of thing is bad for your body, causing kidney damage and so on. Too much of anything is bad for you.

What are the active psychoactive ingredients in Space Original Orbit Herbal Incense and what are their quanties per gram?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

JWH-018 JWH-073 JWH-081 JWH-255

Space is made up of a mixture or different JWH's mixed with herbs. Space is new on the market and some of the most potent blends available. The blend has a medium-cut and dry consistency. The blend is available in many strengths, ranging from yellow up to purple. Many report that only a few moments of purple are needed. Many agree this blend is very strong and somewhat different than the rest. This incense is one of the most expensive. Expect to pay a high amount 25+ per Gram unless you are able to find one of the few wholesale distributors of this product. Typically sold from distributor to distributor at a price of $10.00-$12.00 per Gram. Try http://www.6DGR.MYBIGCOMMERCE.com/ and you will be impressed!

List of drugs with narrow therapeutic index?

User Avatar

Asked by Drusman

Fungi produce antibiotics as a means of competition for resources and space. Antibiotics are chemical compounds that are produced by one organism and are toxic to other organisms, including bacteria. By producing antibiotics, fungi can inhibit the growth of competing bacteria, allowing the fungi to dominate in a particular environment. Additionally, fungi may also produce antibiotics to inhibit the growth of other fungi or protozoa, which would also serve as a competitive advantage for the producing organism.
