Buprenorphine Hydrochloride

Uses of Buprenorphine:

• Buprenorphine HCl is a semi-synthetic opioid agonist-antagonist used to treat opioid use disorder (OUD) and chronic pain. It is available in various forms, including sublingual tablets, buccal films, and transdermal patches.

Mechanism of action:

• Buprenorphine Hydrochloride binds to the mu-opioid receptors in the brain, producing partial agonist effects. This means it can produce some of the same effects as other opioids, such as pain relief and euphoria, but to a lesser extent.
• It also has antagonist effects at the kappa-opioid receptors. This means it can block the effects of other opioids, making it difficult to get high from them.

Side effects:

• The most common side effects of Buprenorphine Hydrochloride include constipation, nausea, vomiting, drowsiness, and headache.
• More serious side effects can occur, such as respiratory depression, allergic reactions, and adrenal insufficiency.

Precautions:

• PluviaEndo‘s Buprenorphine Hydrochloride should not be used by people who are allergic to it or who have severe respiratory depression.
• It should also be used with caution in people with liver or kidney problems, pregnant or breastfeeding women, and people who are taking other medications that can cause respiratory depression.
