As autoridades de saúde Portuguesas e Europeias estão a funcionar bem. Triste caso este da FDA nos EUA associar paracetamol com autismo, descredibilizando a ciência. Na EU e em Portugal acreditamos na Ciência! www.infarmed.pt/web/infarmed... #PharmSky #MedSky #ToxSky

Aligning with this year's World Environment Day theme “End Plastic Pollution," Discover Toxicology has launched a topical Collection: Toxicological Impacts of Microplastics in Freshwater Ecosystems. Submission Deadline: 31 Oct 2025!

The European Drug Report 2025 is out. Cannabis remains by far the most commonly consumed illicit drug in EU, which is followed by Cocaine. Synthetic cathinones, which I study, are increasingly integrated into EU drug market. www.euda.europa.eu/publications... #PharmSky #ToxSky #MedSky 🧪

I'm writing about amphetamine therapeutic use on obesity. I mean d-amphetamine or the racemic mixture, not other amphetamine-like drug. Can anyone tell if amphetamine is still approved in any country for obesity or weight loss? Thanks! #Amphetamine #PharmSky #ToxSky #MedSky #NeuroSky 🧪

Good day for Science! Drugs should be used following solid proof of efficacy without serious adverse events. #PharmSky #ToxSky #MedSky #NeuroSky 🧪 www.science.org/content/arti...

For those interested in the anxiolytic effect of psychedelics I leave an interesting read. It seems interesting the possibility to dissociate the antianxiety effect of psychedelics from their hallucinogenic ones. #PharmSky #ToxSky #MedSky #NeuroSky 🧪 www.the-scientist.com/trippy-scien...

Found this recent study on MDMA #ecstasy pharmacokinetics in humans. For those interested in the therapeutic prospects in PSTD, MDMA is a potent CYP2D6 inhibitor it can have relevant drug–drug interactions. ascpt.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.... #PharmSky #ToxSky #MedSky #NeuroSky 🧪

Concordo plenamente com a hipocrisia social. A nível universitário, por exemplo, há muita publicidade e patrocínios de bebidas alcoólicas, que a meu ver deviam ser repensados a favor da saúde pública.

“For scientists the network is starting to look like home.” Strongly agree. I never had so many scientist interacting with my posts like I do now in Bluesky. #PharmSky #ToxSky #MedSky #NeuroSky 🧪 www.science.org/content/arti...

For those in the field, look at our latest review article on: "Amphetamine and methylphenidate potential on the recovery from stroke and traumatic brain injury: a review" www.degruyter.com/document/doi... #PharmSky #ToxSky #MedSky #NeuroSky 🧪

And I’m telling students to be careful about AI generated content! It seems people like more AI generated poetry…🫣🧪 www.nature.com/articles/s41...
