Harm drugs. The effect of drugs on the human body

Euphoria, unprecedented vivacity, original thoughts, strength and energy - all these can give a person some kind of narcotic drugs. However, the euphoria will pass quickly, vivacity will turn into a strong fatigue, and strength and energy - into lethargy and apathy. How do drugs affect the human body? In what cases is the admission of drugs allowed? What is the harm of drugs?

Any substance that has got into the body has a beneficial or harmful effect on all human systems - respiratory, digestive, nervous, cardiovascular, endocrine and others.

Respiratory system

With the use of drugs , the center responsible for the person's respiratory activity is depressed . As a result, the addict will suffer from a lack of oxygen, and after a while he will develop chronic hypoxia. Usually a condition in which the human body can not absorb enough oxygen develops in the elderly or sick people. All internal organs, including the brain, suffer from hypoxia, which in the future will be manifested by a slow reaction, a significant decrease in mental abilities and memory.

But the harm of drugs is expressed not only in hypoxia. In most cases, people who take drugs die not from oxygen starvation, but from stopping breathing. So are there short-lived dizzying emotions and a sense of euphoria in human life?

The harm of drugs extends to the cough center, which performs the protective function of the body. Because of this, the lung addicts accumulate sputum, pus, mucus and dirt - those substances that a normal person would have left with a cough. Light drug addicts - is, to put it mildly, constantly replenishing "garbage". Who of the people who tried drugs and who subsequently got addicted to them, thought about it?

Heart and blood vessels

In addition to the inhibition of the respiratory and cough centers, there is also a violation of the functions of the vasomotor center, as a result of which the blood pressure of the addict decreases, and the pulse becomes less frequent. One of the main functions of the heart and blood vessels is the supply of tissues and organs with oxygen and the removal of harmful substances from them . However, in the addict all the processes of cleansing the body slow down. And the presence of senile changes in a still young organism is no surprise.

Digestion

The harm of drug addiction is unquestionable ... And in the case of the digestive system, it is so large that most people who once decided to just try to smoke, inject or breathe, would immediately give up their attempt to use one or another drug if they knew about it , What awaits them. The atony of the intestinal walls is what threatens the addict. It does not sound as scary as it really is. "Atony" is the lack of a normal tone. And due to the fact that the digestive organs can not normally contract, the addict turns himself into a "bag full of calves". Constipation for ten days, disgusting smell from the mouth, the processes of putrefaction in the bowels, feces, some of which are absorbed into the blood and carried throughout the body ... What's so pleasant about it? Euphoria long gone, and feces remained ...

Future generation

The harm of drugs extends to the reproductive system. A child is a freak - that's what awaits a woman drug addict, if she suddenly thinks of having children. If the child is not a freak, then he will clearly have health problems. And can a drug addict have children?

That seems to be all. For example, we describe the harm of amphetamine: severe depression, fatigue, debilitating insomnia, paranoia, hallucinations, delusions, weakening of the immune system, disruption of all internal organs. Dependence on drugs is a long and painful death.
