B1.3 Medicine and Drugs Drugs Developing new medicines How effective are medicines Legal and illegal drugs Drugs in sport Cannabis and hard drugs

Developing new medicines A good medicine is: Effective – prevent / cure a disease / ease symptoms Safe – not toxic or unacceptable side effects Stable – use the medicine in normal conditions and able to be stored Successfully taken into and removed from body Developing drugs can take 12 years and cost around £350million They are tested on cells, tissues and organs before animal testing and human trials Placebo – pill that does not contain the drug Double blind trial – neither doctor or patient knows who has the real drug Thalidomide Used in 1950s as treatment for morning sickness Tests on pregnant animals not carried out until 1968 Affected fetuses – born with severe limb deformities

How effective are medicines? Statins: drugs that lower cholesterol in the blood and stop the liver producing too much cholesterol. Patients should also have a healthy diet. This reduces the risk of heart disease Prescribed and non-prescribed drugs Prescribed drugs have been tested in double blind trials and many of the most effective ones come from living organisms. Non-prescribed drugs may not have been evaluated the same way due to expense. St John’s Wort is a non-prescribed herbal remedy for depression – it has been found to be an effective medicine and more effective than placebo

Drugs Drug: alters the way the body works Legal: coffee, cigarettes, alcohol Millions of people take these so health impact is much bigger than for illegal drugs Illegal: cocaine, ecstasy, heroin Affect nervous system Withdrawal symptoms – cravings, aches, sweating etc Addiction: dependent – cant function without the drug. More and more is needed for same effects Addicts may turn to crime to fund drug habits, more likely to get STDs, mental / physical health problems Cannabis: Trigger mental illness Higher risk of depression Gateway drug? Almost all heroin users were originally using cannabis – people in touch with drug dealers
