Have you ever wondered what happens to a painkiller, like ibuprofen, after you swallow it? Medicine that slides down your throat can help treat a headache, a sore back, or a throbbing sprained ankle. But how does it get where it needs to go in the first place? Céline Valéry explains how your body processes medicine.
Lesson by Céline Valéry, animation by Daniel Gray.
Probably the best and simplest explanation of pharmacodynamics I've ever seen. Brilliant. Thanks.
Fizan Ahmed ikr, I just took a pharmacology course and watching this is like a mini abstract
Wouldn't this be considered more pharmacokinetics than pharmacodynamics?
Not a pharmacologist, but pharmacokinetics is how the body affects the drugs (the liver enzymes turning the drugs into metabolites) whereas pharmacodynamics is how drugs affect the body (the mechanism of blocking pain) so I guess the video has a bit of both?
I'm not a pharmacologist, but I am a pharmacist. What I remember from school is that pharmacokinetics involves the ADME processes (absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion), whereas pharmacodynamics involves the mechanism of action.
You are right that there is a brief mention of mechanism. However, the video focuses more on how the drug molecules move after ingestion and less on how the medicine works (i.e. COX-1 and COX-2 inhibition).
...and I've officially nerded out on CZcams XD
WeArePharmers Yup, you really have nerded out but don't worry, you're in good company. Also, you're right. It does focus more on the pharmacokinetics side of it. Thanks.
Lmfao this was posted 44 seconds ago and someone already disliked it.... calm down bruh you haven't even watched the video 😂😂
savage hater XD
e
Senaca Gardipee lol frm there are just trolls that have nothing better to do...unless he tapped dislike by avciddmt4
Senaca Gardipee no he/she must have mistaken it for a fistbump button.
These people would dislike nudes from Scarlett Johansson....grumpy cats or Ron Swansons :P :D
So much respect for doctors, scientists, and just modern medicine for their contribution to the world 👏🏼
All praise to the lord who gave us this kinda intelligent complicated system in our body
And still we can't cure common cold. Greek and Herbal medicine are much more effective.

@@musicmaniac257 maybe theres no direct treatment because of the many kinds of viruses that cause it
😯
I learned way more in this 4 minute video than I did doing two years of biology in high school
That’s not true
@@bunysparks3494 That's because he had chosen letters.
Really?
@@zhaohuiwang67 probably not
Facx 😹😹
I fucking love how you guys turn complex subjects like this into simple and interesting animated videos
Is it designed to cure a disease, read the instructions on the label, age and diet could be blame💊
My poor, poor liver
You seem to be in the comments of every science video on CZcams 😂. Great videos btw!
I see you everywhere
Dr.StickFigure ubiquitous one
( ͡◉ ͜ʖ ͡◉) My poor, poor puss
you again
Not a medical professional or student. Just a sick guy at home curious about how this works. Fantastically simple explanation. I'm sure there is more nuance I'm gonna miss but this answered my questions. Thanks for the video!
What are/was sick with?
@@reagan_ruth7117 I had Covid back when it first started. Was a mean bugger lol.
@@KennethSee covid? bro i forgot it was a thing 3 years ago
@@nickjunior9862 Yep! I got alpha while traveling in Asia during winter 2019. Laid me flat for like a week and a half haha
Me too 🤣🤣
dude i didn't know my liver was a pachinko machine............
Yes
Haha
My brain is a slot machine
It always lose no matter what cost
hahaha
Is this an Alvamajo pureya reference?
Has anyone got that feeling when they're stuck in the Ted Ed loop? LIke, it's so hard ignore a Ted Ed vid in your recommendations and when you click it and finish it, there's always another one waiting for you in the side column. I've already got 2 hours of watching Ted Ed alone... But anyways, thank you so much Ted Ed for answering so many of our biggest questions.
My GCSE Biology exam is tomorrow, great video but I'm still panicking. Loved the animation.
Quazi Irtiza Good Luck :)
Thanks :)
Quazi Irtiza All the best ! :)
If you love science, then the biology test shouldn't be to hard. But still, good luck!
Emma Baker What's GCSE???
This is honestly one of the best (and well explained/simple) videos I think I have ever watched. The animation is excellent and the narration is superb. I now understand how the body processes medicine more clearly now. Thank you.
How does alcohol affects this process? I see warnings not to take medicines with alcohol
knocknockify Alchohol is technically a poison, so while its in your system your liver is working like crazy. So it can't process your medicine at the same rate it would when you're sober and you could easily overdose.
uh alcohol is actually a sin so idk
How is alcohol a sin...? Jesus literally turned water into wine once.
knocknockify It depends on the drugs you're taking! Consuming alcohol with paracetamol, whose metabolites are toxic, for example, would result in even more toxicity to the liver. But in the case of hypnotic drugs like valium, its respiratory depression effect will be likely be multiplied if taking with alcohol, and that might be fatal. So tl;dr - Alcohol will make what's already bad worse ;)
Alcohol is processed in the liver the same way as medicine. Taking medicine while consuming alcohol can overwork and damage your liver.
I'm so thankful for this video! I Study medicine and had been trying to process a pharmacology lecture on this topic just now. SO glad I saw this before going to bed

how about a video on how vaccination works?
Darsh Jalan They introduce a weakened form of whatever illness the vaccine is for and your body's immune system learns how to fight it.
anonymous yeah but still it would be good to see a more detailed version of your answer. Thanks for that by the way:)
Darsh Jalan No problem.
It doesn't. *grabs popcorn*
D1visor so then how does it work?
Watching it as a pharmacy student, all I have to say is: great video for everyone to understand the basics! Well done guys 💯
This channel provides me with information that I didn't really seek for, but I'm grateful nonetheless to have known it now.
can you do a video on how inuslin works? like when diabetics take shots? i think that'd be so cool ☺
Jacob Braxton that would be fun to watch in a little animation
along with a video about Celiac disease and how it affects the body when those allergens enter the body. that'd be interesting to see. 👍
Insulin video would be awesome! I have PCOS and insulin resistance and something about that area would be cool
i read it muslim instead of insulin
Watch "nucleus media diabetes" it might help you :)
Amazing explanation. No one ever said me my body goes through so much trouble for my life and I'm so ungrateful.
Alhamdulillah ya Rab❤️
The visuals and the concise explanation with examples made it easy to understand even for the non-experts. It was great.
The animation, the music, her voice is so soothing! Amazing job!
I *LOVE* this animation
Me too
It reminds me of the pinball counting animation from Sesame Street
This is one of the best explanatory animations I've seen on anything. Great job.
This is why I love animated , simplified stuff for complex subjects like these , everybody gets it.
I'm a pharmacy student, n won't go away without watching it even though I've already studied about it
Thank you for the explanation and the illustration. They're very clear and informative.
I’ve been wondering this forever. How amazing! A very well made video.
I find it fascinating the people who created this and proved it worked and be able to explain it step by step
Watching this with a sore throat, imagining how will the medicines help me out
I was searching for this information for several days and I have found it here, thank you so much 😊
I have so much respect for all of the medical professionals who save lives and educate their patients every day! God Bless them all!
It was the simplest explanation of medicine reaction I have ever seen....and probably indelible as well....thank you so much
Thankyou so much, I've been on medication for my epilepsy for years and it felt like magic. Which I wasn't particularly thrilled with for something so important, so it's nice to know how it works.
that was very informative and simple. Ted Ed you've done it again
This was something I have always wondered about, thanks for providing an answer!
The animation makes this so much easier to understand, thank you!
By far,the best channel on CZcams.Every concept,every video gives you something new to learn and cherish
Calm down its not the best channel you are so childish i bet when you see people open a door you are amaze and in awe 😂
Really good explanation, explained the pharmacodynamics in an easy to understand way. During this special period, countless medical workers and scientists have made significant contributions to the world. worthy of respect
I don't know if I'm the only one but the reason I'm watching this it's because I sprained my ankle and I took an Advil pill and now I'm watching this to see what it's doing in my body
Woah! LOL
The fantastic animation made it super easy for me to understand how medicines work.
Omg i love this, this video popped up just when I needed a simple pharmacokinetic video to study with 😩
what a lovely animation
Absolutely brilliant animation. I worked in pharmaceutical industry all my life. Still learned something!
this video is so beautifully made and the music is peaceful
One of TED-Ed's the best illustrations, despite its simplicity. Thanks to everyone who's behind this great educational channel.
This is very helpful. And love ur animation concept
And now I know, the inside of my liver looks like an arcade game. Thanks Ted-Ed, for sharing your wisdom.
Short, simple and informative. I love it.
Very good video. Thank you for explaining the process.
Such an exciting time to go into healthcare, I hope personalized medicine comes to fruition in the UK and helps us care for patients better as early as possible! :)
The way the animator truly represented the amazingly well-oganized incredible machine the human body is was just sublime to me.
Whoever drew every scene of this video. IT LOOKS SO AMAZING!!! BRAVO!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️
This was very well done, very well explained. Thx!
watching this as i am on antibiotics every 8 hours, want to know what happens then. thank you! been learning a lot from ted! :)
Great information and animations
Beautifully animated and explained.
Thank you! Very informative and concise video.
More power!
The animation and music is an amazing art on its own....
The Music Is like Im Going on a mall...
Thanks for the simple presentation
So easy to understand explained!
3:22 I don't think Slenderman needs a painkiller
love the animation
Found this video extremely useful and satisfying. Thank you
Extremely well done animation and explanation
Whoa. I loved the animation on this video!,
What about drugs that affect your brain like to help ADD? (Ex: Concerta)
thenaynaycat it's slow release and has a tougher inner shell so it dissolves in the system slower
Those affect the levels of neurotransmitters during synaptic transmission. eg, people with depression generally have low serotonin levels meaning a low rate of fire for that neuron and so by blocking the selective re uptake molecules that reabsorb serotonin using SSRIs (selective serotonin re uptake inhibitors), the concentration increases and reverses the low serotonin levels, and in turn some of the symptoms. For ADD, adderal and other drugs can be used that block different re uptake molecules that are associated with Dopamine which helps with motivation and concentration.
thenaynaycat it's better if you don't take it
Pwner 1775 lol no
Gluten does it! celiac.com
This specific topic was something which I was waiting for since ages. Thanks
Very nicely explained, thank you
the animation on this reminds me of the pinball/countdown cartoon from Seasame Street.
Dear people that' reading this, we don't know each other but I wish you all the best in life don't ever blam yourself, accept things and a key for happy life.....
Its just grt to get this Simplified Version of this Complex Cycle
I really didn't know that until now, until I watched your video, it's great, thank you for sharing.
Holy fuck this animtion is amazing
2D has probably learned more about his life watching this than he will in his entire life-time.
Explanation was amazing. Thank you!
Special thanks for your fantastic work!👏
0:14 it all happened to me when you just said them.
Pictures are so cute!😆
The details and the design in our body is a masterpiece
Amazing, fantastic, good job, thanks for the knowledge....
Am I the only one who ACTUALLY *ENJOYS* the taste of medicine???
ZeckDoesStuff yes
I like the taste of uncoated aspirin a little
As far as I know , the APIs of Ibuprofen molecule converting to inactive metabolites is termed as 1st pass metabolism. But why some molecule gets converted to inactive while some escape?. How the molecules manage to escape 1st pass metabolism in liver?
Appreciate TED-ED for this sharing this video.
Clear explanation .thanks for the wonderful effort on this video
Make a video on how good bacteria fights bad bacteria
I'm having a migraine then i took one pill of paracetamol then I went to sleep,I don't know either with my sleep or that pill that stop myself from the pain.
Naddy Kim u rare
Naddy Kim both! But Sleep is king! PS-sorry you have migraines. I have them too, chronically. Therefore I sleep my life away :(
@@mulliganstew72 how do you get rid of chronic migraine?
Aleena there is no cure at the moment. Different people have different reactions to some of the “potentially helpful” drugs on the market and some have had great success changing small things like dietary changes or adding yoga to the routine (I can’t help but wonder if they had through chronic migraines or just tension headaches Simply because I haven’t been that lucky). It sucks. I take triptans, lay in the dark hoping to sleep it off. .. & life passes by. Ugh Fingers crossed they come up with something and I am sorry to hear you have them too.

the intelligible illustration of the video is totally amazing，I cannot find other who is better than ted's
I love the visualization of this video!
3:40 I can see that happening
This was a very nicely animated :)
I've always wondered where does the medicine knows where to go. Fascinating.
DAMN. THIS WAS ONE OF THE BEST VIDEOS BY TEDEX
And that's why the doctor recommends you to rest after taking the medicine! The lesser the heart rate, slower the blood will flow through the liver in a given time and therefore slower it will remove the medicine out of your body increasing it's effectiveness.
Eureka!!
Lol so you probably aatch Horrid Henry
dude, i was so scared of taking pills and stuff, it feels like putting poisen or unknown chemicals into your body, but now i know its not that bad, thanks.
another great video and knowledge TED-ed! thank you!
very nyc animation. i study medicine. wish they taught us this way
But when that 2 hours is up *the pain oh the pain*
That means painkillers are just stopping symptoms temporarily, not curing the actual problem,
@@yonce3431 him
True but maybe we get cured quicker when wd do not have the pain
Now this is a worthy explanation, worth my time.
Does medicine affect in your body permanently or it will go away after a few days?
