Words similar to butorphanol
Example sentences for: butorphanol
How can you use “butorphanol” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
The rank order of efficacy of the ligands tested were fentanyl = hydromorphone = β-endorphin > etorphine = lofentanil = butorphanol = morphine= nalbuphine = nalorphine > cyclazocine = dezocine = metazocine ≥ xorphanol.
Comparing the efficacies of the ligands in this study to the endogenous ligand β-endorphin indicates that fentanyl, etorphine, lofentanil, butorphanol and hydromorphone are all full agonists.
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.
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 potency of the drugs studied were; etorphine > hydromorphone > dezocine > xorphanol = nalorphine = butorphanol = lofentanil > metazocine > nalbuphine > cyclazocine > fentanyl > morphine >>>> β-endorphin.
