Analgesia
Relief of pain without loss of consciousness
Opium
Natural extract from poppy plant used for social and medicinal purpose for thousands of years to produce euphoria, analgesia, sleep and to prevent diarrhea
Opoid drugs
Natural+synthetic morphine-like drugs
Narcotic
Opoid analgesics
Compounds related to opium and applies to any substance whether endogenous synthetic or semisynthetic drugs that produce morphine like effects that are blocked by antagonists such as naloxone
Antagonist to narcotics
Naloxone
Opium effects
Euphoria, analgesia and sleep, and to prevent diarrhea
Opiates
Drugs derived from opium, and they clued the natural products morphine, codeine, and the wine, and may semisynthetic derivatives such as buprenorphine
Endogenous ones are naturally occurring ligand for opoid receptors
What are opoid analgesics used for
Severe pain
Moderate pain
How do opoids such as heroin and morphine work
Mimicking naturally occurring substances called endogenous opoid peptides or endorphins

Indications for use of hospital narcotics to relieve pain
MI Sickle cell crisis Positive operative procedures Trauma Cancer Kidney stones Back pain

MOA
Presynaptic mu receptor activation inhibits calcium influx into sensory neurons, which decreases NT release
Postsynaptic mu receptor activation increases K efflux, which decrease postsynaptic response to excitatory Neurotransmission
