Fine Art Print : Dextromethorphan drug molecule
Fine Art Prints from Science Photo Library
Dextromethorphan drug molecule
Dextromethorphan drug molecule. Molecular model of Dextromethorphan, a cough-suppressant found in many over-the-counter cold and cough medicines. In higher doses than are medically recommended, it will act as a dissociative hallucinogen. It has also been shown that, in combination with quinidine, it can alleviate the emotional lability (laughing or crying uncontrollably) associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and multiple sclerosis. Atoms are colour-coded: carbon (grey), hydrogen (white), nitrogen (purple) and oxygen (red)

EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print showcases the intricate molecular structure of Dextromethorphan, a widely used cough-suppressant found in various over-the-counter cold and cough medicines. The artistic representation beautifully highlights the composition of this pharmaceutical compound, with carbon atoms depicted in grey, hydrogen atoms in white, nitrogen atoms in purple, and oxygen atoms in red. Beyond its primary purpose as a treatment for coughs, this molecule possesses intriguing properties when taken at higher doses than recommended. It can induce dissociative hallucinations, offering an unexpected glimpse into altered states of consciousness. However, it is crucial to note that such usage should be avoided without proper medical guidance. Moreover, recent studies have revealed another remarkable aspect of Dextromethorphan's potential therapeutic benefits. When combined with quinidine, it has shown promise in alleviating emotional lability associated with conditions like amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and multiple sclerosis (MS). This includes uncontrollable bouts of laughter or crying known as labile affect or pseudobulbar affect. This visually stunning artwork not only celebrates the beauty of chemistry but also serves as a reminder of the multifaceted nature of drugs and their impact on human health. As we delve into the intricacies represented by each atom and bond within this single molecule, we gain insight into pharmacology's ability to provide pain relief and address complex neurological symptoms.
