Aspirin is a pharmaceutical drug often used to treat pain, fever, and inflammation. A drug is any substance (other than food that provides nutritional support) that, when inhaled, injected, smoked, consumed, absorbed via a patch on the skin, or dissolved under the tongue causes a physiological change in the body.
In a crisis, the sympathetic division of your autonomic nervous system (ANS) mobilizes your body for action, directing your adrenal glands to release the stress hormone epinephrine (adrenaline) and norepinephrine (noradrenaline). To provide energy, your liver pours extra sugar into your bloodstream.
If the central nervous system is the command center of the body, the peripheral nervous system (PNS) represents the front line. The PNS links the CNS to the bodyâs sense receptors, muscles, and glands.he autonomic nervous system has two divisions: The sympathetic division acts to energize the body, preparing it for action. The parasympathetic division acts to calm the body, allowing it to rest. Our everyday activities are controlled by the interaction between the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems.
