Example sentences for: butorphanol

How can you use “butorphanol” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

For example, one study characterizing butorphanol, [ 31 ] described this drug as a mild analgesic compared to morphine.
Based on these two sets of results, if the analgesic effect of butorphanol is mediated via μ opioid receptors through the inhibitory effect of these receptors on adenylyl cyclase, the equal efficacy of morphine and butorphanol would support an equal antinociceptive effect of these two drugs.
However, in another study, butorphanol was reported to be equipotent in its antinociceptive effect to that of morphine [ 32 ] . In our assays, we have observed that butorphanol and morphine are equally efficacious in inhibiting cAMP production, although butorphanol is more potent than morphine in this assay.
The rank order of potency of these ligands was; etorphine>lofentanil≥cyclazocine=xorphanol>met-enkephalin> Win 44,441=hydromorphone≥butorphanol>metazocine=SKF 10047> dezocine≥ nalbuphine>morphine>fentanyl.
The rank order of efficacy of the ligands tested was metazocine = xorphanol ≥ fentanyl = SKF 10047 = etorphine = hydromorphone = butorphanol = lofentanil > WIN 44,441 = Nalbuphine = cyclazocine ≥ met-enkephalin >> morphine = dezocine.
