2 Scientific Insights Into Opioid-Induced Constiption Key Points Opioid nlgesics bind to opioid receptors throughout the CNS nd PNS, including in the gstrointestinl trct Opioid receptor ctivtion in the gstrointestinl trct modultes physiologic processes from the lower esophgel sphincter to rectum By ntgonizing μ-opioid receptor ctivity, opioid ntgonists reverse the effects of opioid nlgesics Peripherlly cting μ-opioid receptor ntgonists re intended to block opioid receptor ctivtion outside of the CNS eg, the GI trct CNS, centrl nervous system; PNS, peripherl nervous system.
