Ecstasy
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page paper tracing the development of the 'designer drug' ecstasy and the events leading to its proclamation as illegal in the US, and arguing in favor of a continued ban on legal status. Proponents claim it to be harmless, but the evidence appears to indicate otherwise. Even if research did indeed come to the point that it could be concluded based on the facts at hand that there is no long-term damage (i.e., brain damage or death), the conclusion would still only be a partial one in that we are still unsure of precisely what constitutes brain damage. For the present, ecstasy's inclusion on DEA's Schedule I is one that should be continued. Bibliography lists 11 sources.

Effects of Cocaine Use on the Brain: Regions of the Brain, Neurotransmitters, Long and Short Term Effects
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 6 page paper discussing the effects of cocaine use on the brain. Abstract included.
Cocaine has been found to be one of the most popular and easily available addictive drugs in today’s population. The popularity of cocaine is not only in its increased availability and decreased price over the past few decades but also because of its addictive qualities. The addictive nature of cocaine is based on the neurotransmitter dopamine which is responsible for the emotional feeling of a “high” from cocaine use. Cocaine inhibits the reuptake mechanism for dopamine concentrations in the synaptic cleft on specific neurotransmitters and the resulting higher concentration leads to an increased emotional response. Short and long terms effects of cocaine use have been shown to include brain hemorrhages, seizures, hypertension, high blood pressure, tachycardia, developmental problems in “crack babies” and in some cases death. While these severe effects are due to cocaine use, other severe effects can also result from cocaine withdrawal.
Bibliography lists 4 sources.
