41
Q

fluoxetine

A

inhibit Serotonin reuptake

42
Q

modifying factors of toxicity

A

Age: older mammals have reduced clearance of xenobiotics increasing their toxic effects
Nutritional status: a high fat diet exposes individuals to a greater amount of legacy contaminants
Disease: a persons with a a diseases affecting the liver will have reduced clearance, increasing the toxic effect of a xenobiotic
Physical factors: mobile phone radiation may have cancer-causing effects
Social factors: crowded and isolation conditions are known to increase toxic effects
Sex: males and females have different enzymes involved in biotransformation which can lead to having a more toxic response

43
