What are Opioids?
Opioids is a group of medicines used to treat pain. They are derived from opium, which comes from the opium plant.
Opioid vs. Opiate vs. NarcoticThe word opiate refers to natural or slightly modified components of opium like codeine, morphine and heroin. The word Opioids was originally used for synthetic opiates like Oxycontin and Fentanyl. But now it is used for the whole class of medicines. Narcotics is an old name which basically refers to any brain-changing compound with sleep-induced properties.
Opioids AddictionOpioids well create a sense of well-being or enthusiasm that can be addictive to some people. The opiate pain is used legally for the treatment of pain. When pain is used for relief, many people develop tolerance, which means they need more and more to get the same effect. Some people proceed to develop an addiction to Opioids. They start thinking obsessive about achieving more opiate and in some cases engage in illegal activities such as double doctoring.
A high dose of Opioids can cause death due to cardiac or respiratory arrest. Tolerance for the moderate effect of Opioids develops rapidly with tolerance towards dangerous effects. Therefore, people often lose more than accidentally because they are trying to get high altitude and much more.
Opioids overdose can be reversed in hospital with intravenous nalitraxone. If you feel that you are in high risk, please contact emergency services.
