Relieving effect

Naloxone should be administered with great caution and only when necessary in patients receiving a narcotic for severe pain. Naloxone removes all of the pain-relieving effects of the narcotic and may lead to withdrawal symptoms or the return of pain. [Pg.174]

In this case, whenever the pain-relieving effects of the opiate wear off, the doctor or nurse is summoned to give the patient another dose. [Pg.46]

The advantage of PCA is that the patient is able to administer the precise amount of pain medication needed to control his or her pain without having to see the doctor every time an injection is needed. This way, the patient can maintain more constant levels of pain medication in the bloodstream. Also, since the pain-relieving effects and side effects of... [Pg.46]

The major medical use of opiate drugs is for their analgesic or pain-relieving effects. As noted, opiates have been used for this purpose for centuries and remain the most potent and selective pain relievers known to medicine. Unlike the depressant-type anesthetic drugs discussed earlier, opiate analgesics relieve pain without causing unconsciousness. After receiving moderate doses of opiates, patients remain conscious and arc able to report painful sensations but do not suffer from the pain. [Pg.254]

Aspirin relieves pain through action on the endorphins, in much the same way that the pain-relieving effects of opiates are produced. [Pg.373]

F The pain-relieving effects of aspirin are produced by blocking prostaglandin release. [Pg.373]

It has now been discovered that this metabolite, when administered to laboratory animals in a standard pharmacological assay for analgesia (see exemplification), produces a pain-relieving effect which is merely equivalent to that of naproxen (6-Methoxy-a-methyl-2-naphthaleneacetic acid), a popular analgesic and anti-inflammatory agent in use today. Thus, the therapeutic effects of the Al-THC-7-oic-acid metabolite can be separated from the psychoactive effects of THC, the parent substance. [Pg.93]

Ibuprofen is a commonly used, non-prescription NSAID with fever-reducing and pain-relieving properties reduced Cox-2 enzyme activity is largely responsible for its anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving effects. In this study an OTC commercial product (AdviF ) was used a dose of two tablets (delivering 400 mg ibuprofen) was used as positive control. [Pg.49]

The add-base properties of many natural products are important for their isolation, distribution in the body, and therapeutic effects. For example, morphine (page 2) is isolated from the opium poppy and crosses into the brain as the free base, where the nitrogen is not charged. However, it exerts its pain-relieving effects as the charged species. [Pg.26]

The combination oxycodone/naloxone is an opioid analgesic which may also be used for severe pain in CKD patients. Oxycodone is responsible for the pain-relieving effects, while naloxone reduces opioid-induced constipation. [Pg.45]

Adams and Peppiatt (1977) used the finite-element technique to determine the stresses in tubular lap joints loaded in tension or torsion and were able to obtain realistic results for stress concentrations by allowing for the stress-relieving effect of the fillet. They showed that, in the axial load case, the stress concentrations predicted from the finite-element models with the fillet have been shown to be greater than those predicted by the Lubkin and Reissner theory. This is because the closed-form solution does not evaluate the true stress concentrations, i.e. those caused by end effects. The influence of the adhesive fillet on the stress concentrations in the torsional case is shown to be less significant, as the stress concentration values from the closed-form theory are of similar size to those predicted by the finite-element models. They also investigated the effects of partial tapering of the adherends to form a scarf joint. It was concluded that the reductions in stress concentration obtained with this form of joint do not make its manufacture for this reason alone worthwhile, and in the axial case the reductions in the stress concentration were not found to be significant. [Pg.92]

An explanation of the " relieving effect" may be found by comparing it to some cases of ionic antagonism observed in flocculation experiments with mixtures of electrolytes. The efficiency of a polyvalent counter-ion may be severely depressed by the presence of a certain amount of electrolyte of lower valency even to such an extent that, in the presence of this second electrolyte, a larger quantity of the polyvalent ion is necessary to flocculate the sol than if the second electrolyte were absent. [Pg.312]

It is quite conceivable that the antagonism or "relieving effects", remaining after this activity correction should be ascribed to a normal (not very large) adsorption potential. [Pg.313]
