European view of pain management

without comments

Let’s start off with a few simple propositions. Pain is just an extension of touch. We feel some levels of pressure represent pleasure or are merely acceptable. If the pressure becomes uncomfortable, we are immediately alerted. If the discomfort turns into pain, we are motivated to take action. So the gradations of touch into pain are a necessary part of the bodily process allowing us to avoid injury in our dangerous modern environment. Sadly, we do not have the means to switch off pain selectively. We continue to feel some pain unless the drugs literally induce unconsciousness. This is reality. There’s no sense in trying to deceive ourselves. So the big question is how we organize our lives to live a satisfying life with continuing pain?

This is not what you want to hear. The marketers who aim to sell you the range of drugs produced by the pharmaceutical industry have been brainwashing you for decades. They want you to believe there’s a pill to cure all your ills. Except that has always been a lie. Although some drugs are very effective for a time, all drugs slowly lose their effectiveness as the body adapts to them. This leaves you with the choice of giving up the drugs or increasing the dosage and risking dependence. In fact, we have millions of people addicted to prescription drugs. The majority could not stop without experiencing unpleasant withdrawal symptoms.

The most popular medication and other opioid painkillers

without comments

Ultram is one of the most popular medications used for pain management these days. It is considered as the most commonly prescribed painkiller medication in the US these days and there are several reasons for such a vast popularity this drug enjoys among doctors and patients. The main benefit Ultram delivers is it’s universal effectiveness in what concerns pain relief. It doesn’t really matter what causes he pain because Ultram doesn’t affect the source of pain signals but rather blocks them from being interpreted by the brain and experienced as ordinary pain. That’s how all opioid analgesics work and before you start using Ultram it is highly recommended that you learn more about opioid painkillers first.

Opioid painkillers were one of the first to be introduced to the medicine. For a long time opium poppy seeds and their extract were used as a powerful analgesic in smaller doses. In larger doses this substance is infamous for being one of the most devastating recreational drugs in the world – heroin, which is a derivative of morphine. Morphine was one of the most commonly used potent analgesics in its time until its misuse lead to serious limitation and regulation of its use. Morphine is still used for pain management under strict medical supervision and quantitative regulation for relieving the most severe forms of pain. Another common painkiller of opioid nature is codeine that is also used for addressing severe types of pain. Ultram may be not as potent as these substances but it is also an opioid analgesic, which means that it shares the same mechanism of action as these drugs. And that’s the most important aspect of this drug class that you have to know before using any medication of this class.

The FDA approves a new generic

without comments

The pharmaceutical industry has a mixed view of generics and this shows up in the way drugs are marketed. Every manufacturer wants to promote the sales of its big-selling branded drugs. Once the research and development costs have been recovered, they are very high-profit products either until the end of the patent period or until the other manufacturers independently recreate the chemistry and patent their own versions. To protect the home market during the term of the patent, manufacturers therefore push the message the branded drugs are the trusted, reliable drugs. The generics are cheap copies which may be fake because they come from foreign manufacturers, or may be understrength or contaminated because of poor manufacturing standards. This is scare tactics designed to deter you from logging on to the internet and buying “cheap” drugs from international pharmacies. The manufacturers want you paying top dollar and keeping their profit margins high. But the patents run out and, whether the manufacturers want it or not, the generics appear and drive down the price of the affected drugs. This is finally good news for all those who have been buying at their local drugstores.

Ultram does not completely relieve pain

without comments

There’s a rumor going round the town that pain is a bad thing and should be eliminated at all costs. Big Boss Pharma has been lining up all its big guns and, no matter what level of pain you may be experiencing, there’s a pill with your name on it, assuming you get a prescription, of course. You may therefore look at the headline here and be a little surprised. How on Earth can anyone think pain is a good thing? Well, let’s go back to basics. Darwin, that inconvenient man who thinks we all evolved rather than were created, argued only the best-adapted species survived. When it comes to survival, the animal needs to know when it’s under attack. If it’s injured, it decides whether to fight or flee. So pain is a vital signal to the brain. It warns when the body is injured. We benefitted from that when we were less well-developed. Today, it’s still useful to know if we have accidentally injured ourselves or just picked up something too hot to hold.
