....well, here I am. I'm going to try Rping again.
razz
Has anyone seen shoxie or Galaxy Commander? o:
(Or Benzymes, I guess xD )  

[UkyoKuonji2004]

I haven't seen any of them for a while now. Maybe you should consider making another character and RPing with another group.
Think he could join the group we have Marixe? The one in the Desert?

Overusing antibiotics? Overusing anything can be considered poisonous. A drug usually has what's called a "theraputic range" where the amount given is beneficial and there are no adverse effects. This includes antibiotics, sedatives, tranquilizers, anticonvulsants, antidepressants, cardiac stimulants, and antihypertensives to name a few. What your girlfriend is probably interested in is called Pharmacokinetics, or how a body handles a drug. The theraputic effect(and toxicity) correlate good with serum concentration of the drug. I have loads of info for a lab's point of view for this stuff, but if all you want is the negative impacts here they are(btw usually if the patient is not getting a strong enough concentration, there is usually no benefit to the patient, and bacteria can potentially become resistant to the drug, so timing here is important):
Salicylates(often used as cold remedies and analgesics. In human terms, it's Asprin). Overdosing in that can cause hyperventilation, flushing and fever. It causes respiratory alkalosis(makes the blood pH greater than 7.45), eventually as drug ion builds up becomes metabolic acidosis(blood pH less than 7.35). It is a common drug that is overdosed(not as common as ethanol though ~_^)

Here are the not as common ones antibiotic ones, and their side effects. They usually are more severe with greater concentration, but these things can happen in normal dosage as well:

Aminoglycosides(ex// Gentamicin, Tobramycin, Amikacin):
Nephrotoxicity(Kidney damage. Can possibly cause kidney failure?)
Ototoxicity(ear damage)

Tetracyclines:
antibiotic-associated diarrhea
discolored teeth
pseudomembranous colitis

Chloramphenicol:
Some organisms produce chloraphenicol acetyltransferases, enzymes that add acetyl groups to the chloramphenicol molecule; which makes the drug inactive because it doesn't bind with the target sites on bacteria anymore.
Causes two types of bone marrow toxicity, bone marrow suppression(reversible) and idiosyncratic aplastic anemia(irreversible). The aplastic anemia is NOT dose related, but it is fatal and caused by an antimicrobial drug.
Gray baby syndrome may occur when this drug is given to a neonate with an immature liver(because the liver inactivates the drug as well).

I think that's all I can think of. They are the biggies to me. I'm sorry for not having the time to post this before ^_^;

wow, ukyo. Could you pm it to my gf though? im stuck to phone posts, so copy and paste is impossible. Her username is in my profile.  

[UkyoKuonji2004]

I sent it. I can't be a reference source though, but at least now she can use this info and go somewhere with it.  

[pyroknight1]

thanks ukyo, and i know ya cant, but she can use anything she gets at this point i think.  

[UkyoKuonji2004]

Well if she needs more info it should be online somewhere. But if she wants anymore info from me about anything, I can try and see what I can scrounge up. I have this picture about how drugs are administered so that it stays in theraputic range.  

[Hiraru Sagara]

I'm gonna play some video games... so I'll talk to ya'll later! whee
