New clues have been uncovered as to why the human body eventually is resistant to opioid therapy. According to PainMedicineNews.com researchers at the University of Montreal have found why opioids lose their effectiveness.
The findings are published as a study in the journal of Neuroscience a Canadian funded Journal. Doctor Graciela Piniero the study’s lead author had this to say about opiate tolerance.
"We show there’s a molecular basis for creating a drug that produces less tolerance. With this knowledge, we can design better drugs with fewer secondary side effects."
Doctor Piniero went on to say that the research ideated that each person is able to recycle receptors in their cell. The study found that the reaction of the receptors that sit on the membranes of the nerve cells berries when they come into the contact with different opioids.
Here is how a pain specialist doctor Paul Lynch reacted to the study.
"If we can design new drugs there, well look at their receptors and how they’re being up regulated and how to basically decreased tolerance it can get really good for patients."
