How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Morphine Sulfate 1 mg/ml Oral Gel is a specialized oral medication designed to alleviate moderate to severe pain. It functions by interacting with opioid receptors in the brain and spinal cord, effectively blocking the transmission of pain signals to the brain. This mechanism aids in reducing the severity of pain, thereby enhancing the patient's quality of life. The gel formulation is absorbed through the oral mucous membranes, facilitating rapid absorption and swift onset of action. The medication is available in a range of strengths, from 1 mg/ml up to 10 mg/ml.

This oral gel is typically prescribed for patients experiencing moderate to severe pain, such as those dealing with cancer, post-operative pain, or chronic pain conditions.
