drug in the world and is routinely ingested
by about 80% to 90% of Americans,
primarily through soda and coffee. A daily
brewed cup of joe, with 100 mg of caffeine,
can lead to physical dependence.

40% to 70% of those trying to quit.
13
Natural -
anything that
comes from
nature.
Plants (Marijuana)

Synthetic - anything
that is produced

Categories of Drugs
 Herbal =plants and substances that have drug
effects. Some are regulated by law.
 Over the counter – those legally sold or
dispensed without prescription.
 Prescription drugs = those that can be legally
sold only to physicians or through physician’s
order/prescription.
 Unrecognized drugs = those that are not
usually considered drugs.
 Illicit drugs = their sale, use or administration
is generally prohibited by law. 15

16
DRUG DOSAGE

 A dose of a drug is the amount taken at one


time.
 The doses taken become an extremely
important part of drug abuse.

17
 Minimal dose – the amount needed to treat or
heal, that is, the smallest amount of drug that will
produce a therapeutic effect.
 Maximal dose – the largest amount of a drug that
will produce a desired therapeutic effect without
any accompanying symptoms of toxicity.
 Toxic Dose – the amount of drug that produces
untoward effect or symptom of poisoning.
 Abusive dose – the amount needed to produce
the side effects and action desired by an
individual who improperly uses it.
 Lethal dose – the amount of drug that will cause
death. 18
DRUG DEPENDENCE
 Also called as DRUG ADDICTION.

extended period of time.
 The users find it difficult to stop using the drug.
 The users stop taking their drug – only if their
supply of the drug is cut off, or if they are
forced to quit for any reason – they will
undergo painful physical or mental distress.
(Withdrawal Syndrome)
 Drug dependence may lead to drug abuse –
especially the illegal drugs
19
TYPES OF DRUG DEPENDENCE

visible when drug intake is decreased or
stopped and an involuntary illness called the
withdrawal syndrome occurs.

20
FORMS OF PHYSICAL DEPENDENCE
Tolerance
 Occurs when the body becomes accustomed to a
drug as the drug is repeatedly taken in the same
dose.
 It now requires ever- increasing larger doses to
achieve the same desired effect.
Addiction

interfering with the person’s ability to function
normally.

lungs and are quickly absorbed by the rich
capillary system, it is probably the second most
commonly used route of drug administration.
 INJECTION - The drug can be administered into
the body by the use of syringe and hypodermic
needle in the following ways. 25
 Subcutaneous (SC) - Drug is administered by
injecting the drug just below the surface of the
skin; this is sometimes called “skin popping.”
 Intramuscular (IM) - Administration involves the
injection of a drug into a large muscle mass that
has a good blood supply, such as the gluteus
maximus, quadriceps, or triceps.
 Intravenous (IV) - The most efficient means of
administration which involves depositing drug
directly into the bloodstream, this is also the
most rapid method of drug administration.
26
 SNORTING - Inhalation through the nose of
drugs not in gaseous form, it is sometimes
inhaling a powder or liquid drug into the nose
coats of the mucous membrane.
 BUCCAL - The drug is administered by
placing them in the buccal cavity just under
the lips and the active ingredients of the drug
will be absorbed into the bloodstream through
the soft tissues lining of the mouth.

DRUNKNESS AS A CRIME
 In the Philippines, drunkenness in itself is not a
crime because a person may drink to excess in the
privacy of his home or in the party and commit no
crime at all.
 It is only when a drunken person exhibits his
condition publicly, or disturbs, endangers, or injured
others, that he became an offender and therefore,
subject to arrest and punishment.
 Before and during elections, it is unlawful to sell or
drink intoxicating liquor, as provided in the election
law.
 Under RA 4136, as amended, driving under the
influence of liquor is prohibited. 190
 Under Article 15 of the Revised Penal Code,
intoxication is considered as Alternative
Circumstances.
 It is considered a mitigating circumstance when
the offender has committed a felony in a state
of intoxication, if the same is not habitual.
 It is considered an aggravating circumstance,
when the intoxication is habitual or intentional.

191
KINDS OF INTOXICATION
 Involuntary – when a drunken person does not
know the intoxicating strength of beverage he
has taken.
 Intentional – when a person deliberately drinks
liquor fully knowing its effects, either to obtain
mitigation or to find the liquor as stimulant to

BRIEF EXPLANATION HOW A PERSON GETS
DRUNK
Alcohol has its maximum period of
absorption from 30 to 60 minutes after
ingestion and it is absorbed in the stomach
and in the intestines. Technically, if alcohol is
only inside the stomach and intestine and not
yet absorbed, it is practically outside of the
body because it cannot produce its
physiologic and neurologic effects.

195
 The rate of absorption of alcohol in the stomach and
intestine depends upon the following factors:
 Concentration and total quantity of alcohol taken.
 Nature of food present in the stomach and intestine.
 Fatty foods make absorption of alcohol slower as
compared with sugar and other carbohydrates and
protein.
 The length of time the gastric contents are held in the
stomach prior to the opening of the pylorus
 Permeability of the stomach and intestinal membrane to
alcohol.
 Chronic drinkers absorb alcohol faster than non-habitual
drinkers.
 Concentration of alcohol in the beverages between 10196
FORMS OF CHEMICAL AND SCIENTIFIC
TESTS OF INTOXICATION

 Analysis of blood for alcohol contents


 Analysis of urine for alcohol contents
 Analysis of saliva for alcohol contents
 Analysis of breath to determine
concentration of alcohol
 Analysis of body tissue and spinal fluid

197
THE BLOOD-ALCOHOL TEST
 This test is the most widely accepted and direct
method of determining the concentration of alcohol in
the blood. This is done by physician, nurse or
competent technician upon request of the police
investigator. The following are the present two
presumptive standards relating to the interpretation of
blood alcohol contents:
 If there is 0.05 percent or less by weight of alcohol in
a person’s blood, it shall be presumed that he is not
under the influence of intoxicating liquor.
 If there is 0.15 percent or more by weight of alcohol
in a person’s blood, it shall be presumed that he is
198
under the influence of intoxicating liquor.
THE URINE-ALCOHOL TEST:
 Urine examination to determine blood
alcohol contents gives an acceptable result to
the court although the use of this chemical
test is not yet widespread in our jurisdiction.
Sample of urine must not be taken at one time
only because urinary excretion of alcohol
varies with time. Excretion is less during the
early stage of absorption and may be more
than that in the blood during the later stage.

199
METHODS OF THERAPY ON ALCOHOLISM
The Aversion Treatment
 This treatment seeks to create an aversion from
alcohol by the administration of a Nauseating
drug to be followed by a drink of liquor, and thus
develops a dislike of alcohol.
 The method maybe rather costly since
hospitalization maybe required.
 Moreover, the effect is not always lasting and
treatment must be repeated.
 Yet, it is said that this method has proven
effective in more than half of the cases. 200
The Psychotherapy Method
 This cure depends upon showing that the
real problem of the alcoholic is not the
Alcohol itself but the emotional problem
that led the alcoholics to drink.
 This method therefore, aims to eliminate
these emotional tensions.
 Through therapeutic interviews, it
undertakes to make the alcoholics aware
of why he drinks and to provide him with
the strength necessary to combat his
problems. 201
The Program of Alcoholics Anonymous
 This method is based on conversion and
fellowship.
 It emphasizes that alcoholics understand
alcoholism better than anyone else
 Man is dependent upon God and must turn
to Him for help; that the alcoholic must
sincerely desire to stop drinking
 He must admit that he is an alcoholic and
cannot drink in moderation.
