Hi :D

[Kayenneh]

Oh, lol, it's the opposite in my school, the pharm labs are harder than the tox labs. So people tend to prefer tox for that reason, XD.

Hehhe, I love the labs! We had a series of manufacturing labs and since I'm good with my hands it was really fun. My group made the best tooth gel the supervisors had ever seen.
(That our ASA tablets weren't quite up to par is not worth mentioning though.. )

So you must know the derivitive of cyclophosphamide? I'm the type of people you guys treat! How exciting

I think Kayenneh is studying to treat people, I just determine the toxicity of things in a lab (if I graduate that is).

@Kayenneh: I made ASA too! It was in organic chem and it was powder form XD. I envy your lab skills. Most of my labs involve using different methods to determine toxicity, and I'm not that good with them.

Not quite. If I do the traditional role of a pharmacist, I will be the one expediting prescription medicines to customers at a pharmacy. Though, when my co-workers found out that I have studied two years of nursing, I have wrapped a tourists ankle, given a customer her eye drops and put a young boy's arm into a sling.

I always thought the rule of thumb was that everything is toxic, you just need to know the dose

Used that word "treat" a little too liberally, XD, but pharmacists do field questions from customers about drugs, right? At least here they do.

That would be receptor mediated toxicity, there's also reactive intermediates toxicity. If a drug turns into a reactive intermediate, it is inherently toxic because it binds to macromolecules and disrupt cell function. As opposed to receptor mediated where a drug causes a certain reaction through the receptor and too much of that reaction is deemed adverse, therefore toxic. There may be finer points but I've only finished 3rd year and have one more to go

Lol I had to stop telling people my sister's a nurse for that very reason. Everyone and their dog (pun intended) asks her to look at weird bodily anomlies and afflictions. She's my hero

Well I for one am sure it would be a treat to be treated by one so good with her hands.
