Key hormones include TRH, GnRH, GHRH, CRH, somatostatin, and dopamine, which influence the anterior pituitary's functions. TRH stimulates TSH and prolactin, GnRH is essential for reproduction, GHRH prompts growth hormone, and CRH causes ACTH release. Somatostatin and dopamine inhibit growth hormone and prolactin, respectively.

Stimulants enhance dopamine levels, while sedatives depress brain activity. Opioids manage pain but are addictive. Drugs like naloxone, antipsychotics, tranquilizers, and antidepressants modify neurotransmitter activity, influencing mental health. Psychedelics alter perception, and THC in marijuana affects appetite.
