29 Ιουλ 2024 · Many common medications affect thermoregulation, the process by which your body maintains a healthy temperature. Some of these medications, including antihistamines and diuretics, may make it difficult to stay cool on extremely hot days.
The most commonly used drugs that affect thermoregulation include antipsychotic drugs, serotonergic drugs (especially when taken in combination), sympathomimetic drugs, anaesthetics and drugs with anticholinergic properties .
Results. By interacting with neural mechanisms regulating metabolic activity and heat exchange between the brain and the rest of the body, neuroactive drugs either increase or decrease brain temperatures both within (35-39°C) and exceeding the range of physiological fluctuations.
1 Μαΐ 2024 · A 2020 PLOS ONE study found that various commonly prescribed drugs interfere with the body’s ability to perceive and protect itself from heat, increasing the risk of hospitalization.
The thermal environment is one of the most important factors that can affect human sleep. The stereotypical effects of heat or cold exposure are increased wakefulness and decreased rapid eye movement sleep and slow wave sleep. These effects of the thermal environment on sleep stages are strongly linked to thermoregulation, which affects the ...
Weather. Commonly used medicines that may significantly increase the risk include diuretics, especially when combined with an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor or an angiotensin II receptor blocker (ARB), anticholinergics and psychotropics. Initiation of individualized preventive measures prior t ….
3 Νοε 2011 · Its effect on the brain may thus moderate the efficacy by which the clock and homeostat manage to initiate or maintain sleep or wakefulness. The review provides a brief overview of the neuroanatomical pathways and physiological mechanisms by which skin temperature can affect the regulation of sleep and vigilance.
