Can Inhibitory Neurotransmitter Function Be Restored After Toxic Exposure?
In some cases, the function of inhibitory neurotransmitters can be restored after toxic exposure. Treatment often involves the administration of drugs that either mimic the action of inhibitory neurotransmitters or enhance their activity. For example, in the case of strychnine poisoning, administering drugs that activate the GABA receptor can help restore inhibitory neurotransmission. The success of such treatments depends on the type of toxin, the duration of exposure, and the extent of neuronal damage.
