Oxycodone is a widely prescribed, full agonist opioid analgesic. As such, it is used clinically to treat different kinds of painful conditions, with a relatively high potential for doping practices in athletes.Journal of Pharmaceutical and Biomedical Analysis: An International Journal on All Drug-...
Peripheral κ opioid receptor has been suggested as a possible target for attenuating visceral pain [28]. Oxycodone has κ receptor agonist properties and is more potent in the treat- ment of visceral pain [29, 30]. It elevates the threshold for visceral pain stimulation [31] so that the ...
In females, these effects coincide with Tat-mediated elevations in circulating corticosterone and are exacerbated by exposure to the clinically-used opioid, oxycodone (Salahuddin et al., 2019). Exogenous PROG can ameliorate Tat-mediated anxiety-like effects in mice (Paris et al., 2014c, 2016) ...
as a pure μ-opioid receptor agonist, will have an effect more noticeable at very early time points. Onset difference may also be due to administration of the morphine full dose as an injection rather than 15-min infusion. This difference may not be clinically relevant for two reasons: (...

TapentadolCancer painNeuropathic painJapanTapentadol is a dual-acting mu-opioid receptor agonist and noradrenaline reuptake inhibitor with non-inferior analgesic efficacy to oxycodone and better gastrointestinal tolerability than full mu-opioid receptor agonists. Tapentadol is approved for cancer pain in Japan...
Bottom Right: Finally, using the same logic, it should be possible to develop tethered drugs that optimize opioid agonist or antagonist binding enhanced by a specific adrenergic agonist or antagonist. Int. J. Mol. Sci. 2019, 20, 4137 15 of 21 3.3. Proofs of Concept for Complementary Ligand...
