Opioids work by binding certain receptors in the brain Which enhances the effects of certain neurotransmitters in the brain that alter the sensation of pain. Dopamine, and endorphins are two natural chemicals in the brain that are capable of pain relief.

Opioid analgesics relieve pain by acting directly on the central nervous system. However, this can also lead to unwanted side effects, such as drowsiness, dizziness, breathing problems, and physical or mental dependence.

The mechanism of action of opiates is to target the pain receptors in the brain; the mechanism of action of NSAIDS is to work at the site of action, or the actual area in the body where there is pain; for example, if one experiences pain in the knee, the NSAID works directly at the knee and reduces the pain. For much more severe pain, an opiate 'disguises' the pain by making the receptors in your brain not recognize the pain elsewhere in your body.

What is the difference in the mechanism of action of NSAIDs and opiate analgesics?

opiate analgesics have a narcotic added into a pain reliever. The narcotic binds to pain receptors in the central nervous system. This also produces central nervous system depression. NSAIDS inhibit prostaglandin synthesis, which promote swelling and inflammation. NSAIDS inhibit the production of these, therefore, they help with the swelling and inflammation that accompany the event that precipitates pain. Each pain reliever has its pros and cons.


Do pain killers affect your lungs?

A side effect of opiate analgesics is respiratory depression. Meaning if you were to take to much of an opiate than it could cause your breathing to decrease in rate and eventually you would be unable to maintain your own airway.

Is hydrocodone an opitate?

The terms opiate and opioid have similar, yet slightly different, meanings. Properly, opiates are only narcotic analgesics derived from the opium poppy (codeine and morphine). Opioids are narcotic analgesics that have similar activity to opiates (heroin, oxycodone, fentanyl, methadone, etc.) Thus, hydrocodone is an opioid, not an opiate. However, these words are increasingly being used interchangeably, and some would now consider them to be synonymous.
