As a psychiatric and mental health nurse practitioner, it is essential for you to have a strong background in foundational neuroscience. In order to diagnose and treat patients, you must not only understand the pathophysiology of psychiatric disorders but also how medications for these disorders impact the central nervous system. These concepts of foundational neuroscience can be challenging to understand. Therefore, this Discussion is designed to encourage you to think through these concepts, develop a rationale for your thinking, and deepen your understanding by interacting with your colleagues. For this Paper, reflect on the concepts of foundational neuroscience as they might apply t​‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​o your role as the psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner in prescribing medications for patient 1. Explain the agonist-to-antagonist spectrum of action of psychopharmacologic agents, including how partial and inverse agonist functionality may impact the efficacy of psychopharmacologic treatments. 2. Compare and contrast the actions of g couple proteins and ion gated channels. 3. Explain how the role of epigenetics may contribute to pharmacologic action. 4. Explain how this information may impact the way you prescribe medications to patients. Include a specific example of a situation or case with a patient in which the psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner must be aware of the medication’s acti​‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​on.
