Abstract When it was first discovered in the 1500s, opium was heralded as the most potent analgesic. The Latin name for morphine tincture, laudanum (to praise), illustrates the high regard in which it was held. The many adverse effects associated with its use (now attributed to non-specific opioid receptor cross-activation between subtypes ...

On subclasses of opioid analgesics
Current Medical Research and Opinion, 2014The history of discovery of analgesic drugs has followed a trajectory from original serendipitous discovery of plant-derived substances to laboratory creation of customized molecules that are intentionally designed to interact with specific receptors of neurotransmitters involved in either the transmission of the pain signal or the attenuation of such ...

The American Journal of Medicine, 1984
The clinical pharmacology of the narcotic-type analgesics is discussed in depth. Relative analgesic potency, peak and duration of analgesia, oral potency, and adverse effects are reviewed, With an emphasis on the clinical application of this knowledge.

Non-opioid analgesics encompass the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and paracetamol (acetaminophen). The NSAIDs include acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin), dipyrone (metamizole), and numerous other drugs in diverse classes. The NSAIDs have potent anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antipyretic activities, and are among the most widely used ...

Opioid analgesics are one of the most commonly administered groups of drugs in hospitals. These drugs show common structural features, bind specifically to opioid receptors and possess morphine-like pharmacologic action. Tramadol differs from other opioid analgesics in its monoaminergic activity as well as its affinity for the μ opioid receptor.

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are one of the most commonly used over-the-counter medications prescribed. They are also commonly prescribed in various forms. As such, physicians must be familiar with the class as a whole and each drug which has different effectiveness and adverse effects.

Abstract The International Association for the Study of Pain defines pain as ‘an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with actual or potential tissue damage or described in such terms of such damage’. This definition of the pain experience thus combines both the phenomenon of nociception (the sensory nervous system's response to ...

Analgesics, opioids, and NSAIDs
2020In this chapter, we discuss nociceptive treatment targets for pain in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Sustained nociceptive input, as found in RA, can lead to changes in central pain processing.

Analgesia may be enhanced with non-opioid and opioid analgesics, as well as coanalgesic agents. Non-opioid analgesics and short-acting opioids in chronic pain should be limited to infrequent, intermittent use for severe pain flares. Long-term risk for gastric and renal toxicity with analgesics is minimized with opioid analgesics ...

Opioid Analgesics and Opioid Antagonists
1980By opioid is meant any drug, regardless of chemical structure, that acts like morphine. The term opioid is preferred to the older term, opiate, for two reasons: first, because opiate implies presence in or derivation from opium, which indeed contains the analgesic drugs morphine and codeine but also contains thebaine, a strong stimulant (convulsive ...
