SUMMARY:Desired and Undesired Effects of Opioids: Morphine in the Brain
DESCRIPTION:This session explores the complex effects of morphine on the brain and body. Following an introduction to the therapeutic and adverse effects of morphine\, including its role in pain management and risks associated with its use\, the mechanisms behind tolerance\, dependence\, and opioid-induced hyperalgesia will be examined to reveal how prolonged use alters brain chemistry. Learners will be able to recognize the key signs of opioid overdose and understand the appropriate use of antidotal therapy for effective intervention. \nLEARNING OBJECTIVES: \n\nDescribe the primary desired and undesired effects of morphine in the body.\nDescribe the development of tolerance and dependence on morphine.\nExplain opioid-induced hyperalgesia.\nDescribe the cardinal signs of opioid overdose and the proper antidotal therapy.\n\nFACILITATOR: \nRaymond M. Quock\, PhD (Pharmacology)\nProfessor Emeritus of Psychology and Neuroscience\nCollege of Arts and Sciences\nDepartment of Psychology\nWashington State University        \nBIO:  Dr. Quock is a Professor Emeritus at Washington State University.
