Given your budding knowledge of the nervous system, identify and describe THREE different ways that drugs of abuse or prescribed pharmaceuticals can alter how one neuron communicates with another. For each of the ways you decide to mention, make sure to identify where in the neuron the drug can have its effect (e.g., axon terminal, synaptic cleft, dendrites, axon hillock, etc.) and how the drug (elicit or prescribed) alters neural communication at that site.
