Bremazocine

Description

Bremazocine is a potent opioid kappa receptor agonist with analgesic activity. Bremazocine induces peripheral analgesia by releasing endogenous norepinephrine. The analgesic effect of bremazocine is associated with interaction with adenosine receptors. Bremazocine produces a dose-dependent peripheral analgesia after topical application. The effect of bremazocine is affected by nonselective ? 2 adrenaline receptor antagonists, suggesting that it acts through a norepinephrine pathway.
