semester is going so I thought I’d share with you some of the assignments I’ve been working on. I just finished my first chemistry lab project involving drugs! Yes, drugs, but not the ones you’re thinking about. We worked with Sulfanilamide, Phenacetin, Acetaminophen, and your favorite, Caffeine. The goal for the experiment was to determine where the drugs may reside according to their properties. We learned that there are parts in the cell that are more hydrophobic (water-fearing) and other…

Because of the fact that marijuana is a illegal drug, we cannot use its compound form of it to cure cancer because it is not legal to use. However, if marijuana was legal we could use it to save many people’s lives. That is why marijuana should…
known world-wide to be a mind-altering substance deeply inscribed with culture and historical presence. For this reason, it is not classified as an illegal drug, though it can have quite a few negative effects just like any other drug. With its many uses—both recreationally and medically—it is no wonder why alcohol is the most commonly used “drug” in the world, despite its repercussions when abused. Alcohol does not fall under the list of controlled dangerous substances (CDS) because it is a…
BEMA film was designed to rapidly deliver a drug across the mucosa when fast onset of effect is required and to formulate drugs with poor oral bioavilability[1] Buprenorphine has very poor oral bioavailability(~10%) due to extensive first pass metabolism[3] and hence cannot be formulated as an oral tablet. IM, IV, suppository, transdermal, sublingual and buccal administration routs all bypass first pass metabolism and hence increase the bioavailability however IM, IV or suppositories would be…
