A route of administration for a drug, examples, Actiq (fentanyl transmucosal system) and Saphris (asenapine sublingual tablets)
Buccal administration works as follows:
1) substance is introduced to the cheek/gum region
2) the substance is absorbed by the membranes
3) the substance goes into the bloodstream
Actiq, by the way, is a lollipop looking thing that delivers fentanyl to your cheek and gum membranes slowly.
Also, they taste good (about 2 grams of sugar plus flavorings per pop)
Fentanyl is an opioid and asenapine is an atypical antipsychotic.

Get the Closescoper mug.An atypical antipsychotic is a drug used to return individuals with psychotic disorders (schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder {when used with antidepressants}) back into a normal or sedated state.
There is no generalization for how these drugs work, but they mostly focus on dopamine and serotonin activity.
Examples include:
Zyprexa (olanzapine)
Seroquel and Seroquel XR (quetiapine)
Risperdal (risperidone)
Abilify (aripiprazole)
Clozaril (clozapine)
The image is the 3D structure of olanzapine free base (meaning no modifications to the molecule such as in quetiapine's fumaric acid salt, quetiapine fumarate.)

Get the your mom mug.A heart attack, also known as a myocardial infarction (MI), is a serious and deadly problem of the heart. It occurs when a clot of blood or plaque builds in the arteries or veins of the heart, decreasing or stopping blood flow to a part of the heart muscle. The heart will fail to beat sufficiently due to less workpower and more stress, and may then degrade into an abnormal heart rhythm or cardiac arrest, the latter of which having only an eight to ten percent survival rate.(1)
They may occur as a result of disease or with no apparent cause.
Chewed aspirin is used in the immediate treatment of heart attacks for better outcomes. Later, heparin (blood thinner) may be given, with nitroglycerin (blood vessel widener) or an opioid ("pain killer"). Long-term measures, such as blood thinners, stents, beta blockers, statins, nitroglycerin, and angiotensin II receptor blockers as well as angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitors (both of these widen blood vessels and decrease blood pressure), and aspirin regimens can be used and prescribed for comfort and preventative means.
Noticeable symptoms for men often include severe pain in the chest, arms, and neck, shortness of breath, lightheadedness, dizziness, feelings of impending doom, and fainting. For women, they more often include nausea, indigestion, and clamminess, but may also include the other symptoms.

Heart attacks are a growing problem that we can help treat. Eat less salt, get some more exercise, even for just a brisk walk a day, drink and smoke less, and we'll finish heart attacks in no time.
