Morphine (Kadian) 10mg Rx

Morphine is a potent opioid analgesic used to relieve severe pain. Derived from the opium poppy, it works by binding to opioid receptors in the brain and spinal cord, altering the perception and response to pain. Commonly administered in hospital settings, KADIAN is an opioid agonist indicated for the management of pain severe enough to require daily, around-the-clock, long-term opioid treatment and for which alternative treatment options are inadequate.

Morphine is crucial in medical settings for its unparalleled ability to manage pain effectively, ensuring patient comfort and improved well-being.
