Substance Abuse - DANTES test question - Bettyboop - 12-18-2012

I am studying the flashcards for my upcoming test, and am wondering how important it is that I remember the names of the drugs that are antagonists to cocaine, heroin, etc. There are a bunch of flashcards with that info and I'm not sure how vital it is that I remember that particular section. There's so much to study, and if anyone has input I would really appreciate it!

Thanks and Happy Holidays!

Yes you need to know them.

Naloxone/narcan likely being the most important antagonist to know. Understand that it works by blocking opioid chemical receptors. I recall a few questions on this on my exam.
