In this episode of the podcast, we will be exploring the topic of opioids. What are they and what do they do?
Opioids are a class of drugs that are commonly used to treat pain. They work by binding to specific receptors in the brain and spinal cord, reducing the perception of pain and producing feelings of pleasure and euphoria. Some of the most well-known opioids include fentanyl, hydrocodone, oxycodone, and morphine.
However, despite their medical uses, opioids can also be highly addictive and have the potential for misuse and overdose. The opioid epidemic in the United States has reached crisis levels, with thousands of lives lost each year due to opioid-related overdoses.
Join us as we discuss the basics of opioids, their effects on the body, and the ongoing opioid epidemic. We will also talk about the importance of responsible use and the need for effective solutions to address this pressing issue.
