Meptazinol is an analgesic drug used to treat moderate to severe pain. It is a centrally acting opioid agonist, meaning it works by binding to opioid receptors in the brain and spinal cord to reduce the perception of pain. Meptazinol is typically used for short-term pain relief, such as post-operative pain, and is not recommended for long-term use due to its potential for addiction and abuse. It is available in both oral and injectable forms. Meptazinol is a relatively new analgesic drug, and is not as widely used as other opioid analgesics such as morphine and oxycodone. However, it is gaining popularity due to its effectiveness and low risk of side effects. It is also used in combination with other analgesics to provide more effective pain relief. Some companies that produce Meptazinol include Mylan, Teva Pharmaceuticals, and Sun Pharmaceuticals. Show Less Read more
