Analeptics are drugs used to stimulate breathing or circulation. Opioid receptor antagonists are used to partially or fully reverse the effect of opioids.
Medication or another substance can cause poisoning if, for example, too much of it is taken. The medication or other substance may also be administered or taken by mistake.
The symptoms can vary depending on which medication or other substance has caused the poisoning.
