Title: [Analgesic agents: comparative evaluation, mechanisms of action, prospects]. Author: Churiukanov VV. Journal: Anesteziol Reanimatol; 1998; (5):4-11. PubMed ID: 9866237. Abstract: A classification of analgesics based on the localization and mechanisms of their action is proposed. Opioid analgesics are compared: opioid receptor agonists, agonists-antagonists, and partial agonists. Central-action nonopioid analgesics are listed: alpha 2-adrenomimetics, Na- and K-channel blockers, reverse monoamine neuronal capture inhibitors, stimulating amino acid antagonists, etc. Peripheral-action analgesics (cycloxygenase inhibitors) are described.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
