Infumorph is indicated for the management of severe pain that requires opioid analgesia when other methods are inadequate. It is commonly used for epidural or intrathecal administration during and after surgical procedures, as well as for chronic pain management in appropriate patients.
Infumorph contains morphine sulfate, an opioid agonist that binds to mu-opioid receptors in the central nervous system. This binding inhibits the release of neurotransmitters involved in pain transmission, reducing the perception of pain and producing analgesic effects.
Infumorph is a Schedule II controlled substance with significant risks including respiratory depression, dependence, and abuse potential. It should only be administered by healthcare professionals experienced in epidural or intrathecal opioid therapy. Patient monitoring for respiratory depression is essential, particularly during initial dosing and dose adjustments.
