DESCRIPTION
مكانيسمهايي كه داروها موجب درمان اختلالات روانپزشكي ميشوند. مكانيسم اصلي (حال حاضر): تاثير بر Neurotransmission است. Neurotransmission : آزاد سازي يك واسطه نروني(نروترانسميتر) و اتصال آن به نرون گيرنده در نرون بعدي و ايجاد تغييرات در آن. كليه ارتباطات در مغز ناشي از تعامل ميان نرونها است. - PowerPoint PPT Presentation
