However, clinical utility of opioids is limited because long-term use leads to analgesic tolerance, such that higher concentrations of opioids are needed to achieve the same analgesic effect. This is problematic since tolerance to the life-threatening respiratory depressive effects of opioids develops slower than to the analgesic effects of opioids. Thus, opioid tolerance increases risk for overdose and death. 000008594 542__ $$fIn copyright - single owner 000008594 650__ $$aDrug Tolerance$$018089 000008594 650__ $$aPhosphorylation$$024067 000008594 6531_ $$asomatostatin receptors 000008594 6531_ $$amu opioid receptors 000008594 6531_ $$aopioids 000008594 691__ $$aSchool of Medicine$$041369 000008594 692__ $$aVollum Institute$$041509 000008594 7001_ $$aLeff, Emily R. 000008594 8564_ $$9c376f226-392e-402f-9d15-9b1f62bc105a$$s11140821$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/8594/files/Leff.Emily.2020.pdf 000008594 905__ $$a/rest/prod/31/97/xm/82/3197xm82x 000008594 909CO $$ooai:digitalcollections.ohsu.edu:8594$$pstudent-work 000008594 980__ $$aTheses and Dissertations
