Aims Monitoring opioid prescribing across different healthcare systems is essential to understanding population‐level exposure and informing global health policies. This study examined opioid utilization in Scandinavian countries between 2010 and 2023 using multiple complementary metrics, addressing the limitations of single‐metric comparisons ...

Threonine 180 Is Required for G-protein-coupled Receptor Kinase 3- and β-Arrestin 2-mediated Desensitization of the µ-Opioid Receptor in Xenopus Oocytes [PDF]
To determine the sites in the µ-opioid receptor (MOR) critical for agonist-dependent desensitization, we constructed and coexpressed MORs lacking potential phosphorylation sites along with G-protein activated inwardly rectifying potassium channels ...

Combination vs. single‐drug nonprescription analgesics for acute pain management: A narrative review
Combining nonprescription analgesics with different mechanisms of action has been proposed as a rational strategy to optimize the management of acute pain. This review assessed the efficacy and safety of nonprescription analgesics, including paracetamol (acetaminophen), metamizole and nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) used in combination vs.

Aims Insomnia is a common sleep disorder, affecting up to 20% of the world population and adversely impacting productivity, health, and overall well‐being. Although pharmacologic options exist to treat insomnia, the health‐related quality of life for patients who are prescribed hypnotics is no higher than for those who are not, revealing a significant ...
