Opioid Receptor types & effects
|
mu -> supraspinal & spinal
morphine-like analgesia, respiratory depression, euphoria, physical dependence delta -> spinal analgesia -> enkephaline selective interaction kappa -> spinal analgesia -> miosis, sedation (pentazocine-like) |
|
Morphine Physiological Actions
|
"HECk of a DREAM"
↑Histamine & hormonal (↑Prolactin, ↓ GRH, CRH, CH, FSH, ACTH) Emesis Contract smooth mm (biliary & bladder/ureter) CV changes (orthostat hypo) Decreased cough, GI motility, uterine tone, Depress mental (sedation) Respiratory depression (also causes dilation of cerebral vasculature -> ↑ICP) Euphoria Analgesia Miosis |
|
Morphine acts on which receptors
|
mu (strong), delta (weak), kappa (weak)
|
|
Heroin differences from morphine and metabolism
|
lipid soluble -> CROSS BBB
glucuronide conjug -> urine & bile |
|
Treatment of morphine OD
|
atropine + naloxone (also diagnostic c/o reverses effects)
|
|
Codeine effects
|
same as morphine except:
anti-tussic less euphoria more effective orally |
|
Opioid alkaloid mnemonic
|
"CODE LEVels call for MORe HEROIN"
Codein, Levorphanol, Morphine/Hydromorphone, Heroin |
|
Codeine acts on which receptors
|
kappa (weak) and delta (weak)
|
|
Levorphanol what is it
routes of admin |
Strong opioid agonist
oral or parenteral |
|
Cross-tolerance to morphine
|
meperidine & codeine
|
|
Effects cannot get tolerance to w/ opioids
|
miosis & constipation
|
|
Meperidine mnemonic
|
"Me poor mom had me in labor & pushed w/ anti-muscles wide eyed w/ amazement"
|
|
Meperidine uses, DOA & Admin
|
Use: labor & moderate/severe pain
Action: SHORT DOA, weaker than morphine ORAL (no 1st pass metab) |
|
Meperidine acts on which receptor
|
mu agonist
|
|
Meperidine actions, SE, admin
|
Anti-SLUD/anti-muscarinic
Depress repiration DILATES PUPIL Blurred vision TACHYCARDIA (c/o decrease TPR) |
|
Diphenoxylate use
|
Diarrhea (diphenoxylate + atropine)
"Diarrhea is not too (di) phen atropine all" |
|
Fentanyl acts at which receptor
DOA metabolism |
mu agonist
RAPID onset Short DOA (Fentanyl is Fast) |
|
Fentanyl use
|
Labor, Post-Op, Pre-op (Anaesthesia), Chronic pain (e.g. cancer)
|
|
Sufentanyl properties
|
analogue of fentanyl; short duration
high addiction and OD toxicity |
|
Methadone acts on which receptors? for how long? How is it used & administered?
|
mu agonist, Oral admin
LONG DOA: 15-40 hrs (lipid soluble -> cross BBB) Tx for heroin addicts: long doa decrease withdrawal & blocks reinforcement/criminal activity NOTE: Very addictive |
|
Oxycodone acts on which receptors
Use? |
Mu agonist
Moderate/severe pain; opioid tolerant pt -> sustained release tablets (#1 killer of abusers) (Note: oxy + aspirin + acetaminophen = Percocet) |
|
Propoxyphene site of action
Use Side effects |
mu receptors
mild/moderate analgesia, anti-tussic Nausea, anorexia, constipation (Toxic dose: resp depress, pulmonary edema, cardiotoxic, delusions/HALLUCINATIONS - like EtOH withdrawal) |
|
Pentazocine site of action & MOA
|
mixed agonist:
kappa agonist mu antag/partial agonis MOA: Release NE from Sympathetic fibers |
|
Pentazocine mnemonic
|
Pentagrams seen breathing on ceiling BUT not on PHAN AT ALL (Butorphanol = less halluc)
Krazy? Maybe (Kappa, Mu) |
|
Pentazocine Side effects
|
Psychomimetic (hallucinations)
High dose: increase BP & HR (from NE) Ceiling effect for resp. depression |
|
Buprenorphine site of action
DOA |
Partial mu agonist
Long DOA |
|
Buprenorphine use
Side effects |
Office detox (Bupre + Naltrexone)
Can precip. withdrawal Resp depression RESISTS Naloxone ("Bupre No Naloxone work") MORE potent than morphine (25-50x) |
|
Butorphanol site of action
Side effects |
Kappa (strong)
Mu (antagonist or partial agonist) Less psychomimetic effects Ceiling for resp. depression |
|
Tramodol site of action
MOA |
mu (weak) (synthetic codeine analogue)
Inhibits reuptake of NE & 5-HT ("One way tram to exciting (NE), feel-good (serotonin) land") |
|
Tramodol use
side effects |
moderate pain
OD can -> respiratory depression |
|
Naloxone use
Site of action/MOA DOA |
Opioid OD (DOC); possible for shock, eating disorder
