Mechanisms of non-opioid analgesics beyond cyclooxygenase enzyme inhibition.
Non-opioid analgesics including both selective and non-selective cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitors and acetaminophen are the most widely used treatments for pain. Inhibition of COX is thought to be largely responsible for both the therapeutic and adverse effects of this class of drugs. Accumulating evidence over the past two decades has demonstrated effects of non-opioids beyond the inhibition of...

C describe the concept of multimodal analgesia and give examples Abstract Opium is the natural substance to which modern narcotics owe their existence. First discovered in the 1500s, opium was the most potent analgesic compound in use, held in high regard, hence its Latin name laudanum (to praise). Subsequent studies into the effects of opium led to the discovery of the opioid receptors, and th...

Paracetamol has analgesic and antipyretic e ects that are similar to aspirin, but little or no antiin ammatory activity. It is generally accepted that it has little e ect on extracerebral COX-1 or COX-2, although it inhibits central COX-3. Consequently, it prevents the enhanced synthesis of prostaglandin E2 in the hypothalamus during pyrexia, and thus reduces elevated body temperature. It has s...

متن کاملOpioid Analgesics
Intensive research on the neurobiology of pain over the past two decades has revealed many receptors, ion channels and enzymes with potential as novel targets for development of a new generation of analgesic agents. However, despite large investment in preclinical and clinical development of small molecules and biologics as potential novel pain therapeutics, very few have reached the clinic. He...
