The majority of opioid analgesics used in chronic pain are full mu-opioid receptor agonists. Examples include morphine, hydromorphone, fentanyl, oxycodone, hydrocodone, and methadone. Buprenorphine is a partial mu-opioid receptor agonist that produces a reduced analgesic effect as compared to full mu-opioid receptor agonists. However, because
There are three FDA-approved medications used to treat OUD: the mu-opioid receptor partial agonist buprenorphine, the mu-opioid receptor full agonist methadone
