Opioid analgesics, also called narcotics, are drugs usually used for treating pain. Opiod analgesics are defined as "all of the natural and semisynthetic alkaloid derivatives from opium, their pharmacologically similar synthetic surrogates, as well as all other compounds whose opioid-like actions are blocked by the nonselective opioid receptor antagonist naloxone.[1]
Pharmacology
There a several cell surface receptors for opiods. All are are G-protein-coupled receptors. The major subtypes of opioid receptors are:
- Mu receptors are responsible for analgesia.
- Delta
- Kappa
