Summary
| Description |
English: This graph demonstrates how buprenorphine is a partial agonist of the µ-opioid receptor. This means that when the dose is escalated (moving to the right on the x-axis), there will be a ceiling effect for all the responses related to activation of the µ-opioid receptor. This includes euphoria, analgesia (pain relief), and respiratory depression. |
