DRUGS Increase your vocabulary:
Drugs are chemical substances used in medicine in the cure, treatment or prevention of disesases in man and animals. They can come from different sources and are obtained from plants such as roots, leaves and fruits. For example, antibiotic penicillin is obtained from plants called molds. Drugs can also be obtained from animals, for example, hormones and secretions from glands of animals. Drugs can be made from chemical substances in laboratories. Some drugs are contained in food, they are called vitamins. A drug can have three names: 1. The chemical name is the chemical formular for the drug. 2. The generic name is public property and any drug manufacturer may use it. 3. The brand name is the private property of the individual drug manufacturer and no competitor may use it. There are some definite standards for drugs set by independent commitee. Two of these important standards are that the drug must be clinically useful and available in pure form. The drugs can be classified according to their action. The main groups are: antiseptics, cough mixtures, laxatives, tonics, analgesics , ointments and others.Therapeutic effect, side effect and allergic reaction are the major characteristics of drugs. One should remember about the reaction of drugs on the body. Too little of the drug causes it to be ineffective while an overdosage may be fatal. Children and aged people are more sensitive to drugs and require a smaller dose than others. Drugs are administered in four ways: orally (through the mouth); parenterally (by injection); rectally (into the rectum), and by inhallation.

In the USA the young man who has the High school education must pass through seven or eight years of hard study. Students who wish to become physicians have three or four years of premedical training at a University preparing them for a medical school. This course of studies is generally called a premedical curriculum. Here they learn the main sciences such as Mathematics, Physics, Inorganic Chemistry, Quantitative Chemical Analysis, Economics, Philosophy, etc. This long list of subjects is made more tolerable by a large number of very good parties, vacations and *sporting events. At the end of their third year the very important process of applying to a medical school begins. Only those students who show good results in their premedical training can become candidates for higher medical education. Those who do not continue their education can work as nurses. Medical schools train practitioners and physician-scientists in all fields of medicine. The course of study is four years. *Tuition fees is about $30 000 per year. Medical schools have a policy of *need-blind admission and adequate financial aid for those students with financial need. In the medical school medical subjects are taught. During the first two years the students master laboratory sciences. The students study Anatomy, Biochemistry, because it is the basis for clinical laboratory diagnosis and therapy. The students learn the functions of the body theoretically from books and by laboratory experiments in classes of Physiology. In the USA the curriculum of medical schools has such a subject as Psychology, which teaches the students to *deal with patients and understand human behavior. The students learn all other subjects such as Biomathematics, History of medicine, Microbiology, Pathology, Physical Diagnosis, Pharmacology and Laboratory Diagnosis before they begin to treat patients. |
