How do narcotics work

2 Answers

Opioid drugs work by binding to opioid receptors in the brain, spinal cord, and other areas of the body. They reduce the sending of pain messages to the brain and reduce feelings of pain. Opioids are used to treat moderate to severe pain that may not respond well to other pain medications.

Narcotics or Norcos are strong pain killers that need to be prescribed to get. They work like a high dose of ibuprofen by canceling out the neurons that send pain signals to the brain.
