    Opioids are a class of drugs found naturally in the opium poppy plant that work in the brain to relieve pain. There are different types of opioid receptors in the body that opioids act on to produce their effects. Managing pain is one of the greatest challenges in clinical medicine as pain is a complex sensation caused by neurochemical processes in both the peripheral and central nervous systems.

    CLASSIFICATION OF OPIOID RECEPTORS

    OPIOIDS:
    Opioids are a class of drugs naturally found in the opium poppy
    plant and that work in the brain to produce a variety of effects,
    including the relief of pain with many of these drugs
    Management of pain is one of clinical medicine's greatest
    challenges. Pain is defined as an unpleasant sensation that can
    be either acute or chronic and that is a consequence of complex
    neurochemical processes in the peripheral and central nervous
    system (CNS). Opioids are natural or synthetic compounds that
    produce morphine-like effects.
