Podcast 668: Opioid-Induced Hyperalgesia

Podcast 668: Opioid-Induced Hyperalgesia

Contributor: Donald Stader, MD

Educational Pearls:

  • Opioids target kappa and NMDA receptors that can lead to central nervous system sensitization and therefore increased pain
  • For patients with opioid-induced hyperalgesia (OIH), oral ketamine (25-50 mg) can be used to treat their pain as it targets the NMDA receptor
  • Other treatments is IV magnesium, NSAIDs, tylenol, and clonidine
  • Buprenorphine and methadone are options for chronic pain management in the setting of OIH
