- Review the Learning Resources assigned this week.
- Review the Concept Map resources.
- Explore the listed agonist spectrum and consider the action and receptor of each:
- Agonist
- Partial agonist
- Antagonist
- Inverse agonist
submit a concept map exploring the four agonists on the agonist spectrum (agonist, partial agonist, antagonist, and inverse agonist) in which you:
- Describe the different characteristics of the four agonists and how each mediates distinct biological activities. Include proposed mechanisms and the receptor it is targeting.
- Scavenge the literature after describing each agonist on the spectrum for research that is based on the medications in the table below.
- Apply the medications to the appropriate agonist on the agonist spectrum in your Concept Map.
Medications
Oxycodone
Brexpiprazole
Haloperidol
Naloxone
Aripiprazole
Amphetamine
Risperidone
Pimavanserin
Please add references. Thank you.
