Gastrointestinal motility, dysbiosis and opioid-induced tolerance: is there a link?
Studies show that gut microbial dysbiosis induced by chronic opioid use is linked to central opioid tolerance. Here, we suggest that a persistent decrease in gastrointestinal motility by opioids is a primary cause of gut microbial dysbiosis and that ...
