Summary: | Prolonged use of opioid will cause physical dependence to an individual, while abrupt termination of opioid or the administration of an antagonist lead to the symptoms of withdrawal. Physical dependence is manifested by the occurrence of withdrawal sign and symptoms such as the increase in the concentration of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) level, following chronic exposure to morphine. Nowadays, many opioid substitution therapies exist aiming to treat opioid dependence, where the main purpose of these therapies is to control withdrawal symptoms. |
