fentanyl and Acute Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

fentanyl has been researched along with Acute Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder in 9 studies

Fentanyl: A potent narcotic analgesic, abuse of which leads to habituation or addiction. It is primarily a mu-opioid agonist. Fentanyl is also used as an adjunct to general anesthetics, and as an anesthetic for induction and maintenance. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p1078)
fentanyl : A monocarboxylic acid amide resulting from the formal condensation of the aryl amino group of N-phenyl-1-(2-phenylethyl)piperidin-4-amine with propanoic acid.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Fentanyl was found at a high rate, even in the absence of other opioids, which suggests that some veterans might be consuming fentanyl with cocaine."1.62Brief Report: Rates of Fentanyl Use Among Psychiatric Emergency Room Patients. ( Campbell, S; Elmarasi, M; Fuehrlein, B; Garcia-Vassallo, G, 2021)
"Relative to healthy controls, both trauma-exposed groups had lower micro-opioid receptor BP2 in extended amygdala, nucleus accumbens, and dorsal frontal and insular cortex but had higher BP2 in the orbitofrontal cortex."1.34Altered central micro-opioid receptor binding after psychological trauma. ( Britton, JC; Bueller, JA; Fig, LM; Koeppe, RA; Liberzon, I; Phan, KL; Taylor, SF; Zubieta, JK, 2007)
"Ohmefentanyl (OMF) is a new mu opioid receptor agonist with high affinity and selectivity, and possesses anesthetic activity."1.30[Effects of ohmefentanyl at anesthetic dose on plasma levels of corticosterone, cortisol and antidiuretic hormone in rats]. ( Chi, ZQ; Jin, WQ; Jin, XL; Li, GF; Zhou, DH, 1997)
