For those who don’t know or are curios: An agonist is a biochemical assists a particular therapy drug reaction within the body Ant-agonist is a biochemical that retard the therapy drug from reacting An enzyme is a biochemical catalyst that speeds up or slows down particular process whilst not being consumed in this process A co enzyme assists the enzymatic process however dependent upon other needs may be consumed in the process. As the purpose of any therapy treatments invokes the use of all or some of these components, there must be a warning against overuse of MAO A and B reagents i.e. that perform overall process.
