Abstract
A pharmaceutical composition comprising an opioid agonist analgesic and an α3β4 nicotinic receptor antagonist effective to separate the brain-derived wanting of the opioid from the analgesic or anti-diarrhea effect of the opioid agonist.
Claims18
) An analgesic composition that comprises an effective amount of an opioid agonist, an α3β4 nicotinic receptor antagonist and a suitable carrier thereof.
) A method for treating pain or diarrhea in a human, wherein the method comprises administering to said human a single pharmaceutical composition containing an opioid agonist analgesic and an α3β4 nicotinic receptor antagonist.
) A method for any licit use of an opioid agonist in a human that decreases the wanting of said opioid agonist by said human other than for said any licit use, wherein the method comprises administering to said human said opioid agonist simultaneously with an α3β4 nicotinic receptor antagonist.
) A pharmaceutical composition comprising an opioid agonist analgesic, an α3β4 nicotinic receptor antagonist, and a suitable carrier thereof.
) A pharmaceutical composition comprising an opioid agonist analgesic, an α3β4 nicotinic receptor antagonist, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, and a suitable carrier thereof.
