| | Morphine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | But it was not until the development of the hypodermic needle (1853) that its use spread. |  | | As an antidiarrheal in chronic conditions (e.g., for diarrhea associated with AIDS) |  | | Even today, morphine is the most sought after prescription narcotic by heroin addicts when heroin is scarce. |

 | | Morphine was first used medicinally as a painkiller and, erroneously, as a cure for opium addiction. |  | | Despite legislation, morphine maintained much of its popularity until heroin came into use, it in its turn believed to be a cure for morphine addiction. |  | | Given intravenously, it is still considered the most effective drug for the relief of pain. |

| | Morphine |
 | | Addiction is not a problem when morphine is used to treat acute pain after surgery; sufficient morphine should always be given to relieve the pain. |  | | Morphine can be given to relieve chronic pain especially from cancer. |  | | This is an effect of its action on the spinal cord to decrease the transmission of painful stimuli from body to brain, and its action within the brain itself. |

| | Morphine & Heroin |
 | | It is important as a painkilling drug in its own right, but it is also the source of other analgesic drugs such as morphine and heroin. |  | | It is this which makes morphine, and the other drugs related to it (such as heroin), attractive to those who want to use drugs for 'recreational' reasons. |  | | It is less potent than morphine, but is still widely used for the relief of post-operative pain. |

 | | Inferior to morphine in its analgesic properties, codeine is also less toxic, while some of its undesirable secondary actions, such as the danger of addiction and the effect on the intestine, are much less pronounced. |  | | The formula of this last compound can be rewritten in such a way that its relationship to the morphine type of structure becomes readily apparent. |  | | An earlier article by Paul Weill has treated of the chemistry of the natural analgesics, morphine and codeine, and has especially discussed the work that led to the elucidation of their molecular structure. |

 | | The morphine was administered by piercing the patient's skin with the needle (after a seal was broken with a small needle) and then squeezing the tube. |  | | Although the injection of morphine straight into the bloodstream is more addicting than any other means (such as smoking or ingesting opium, from which morphine is derived), morphine has been widely used since the American Civil War as a quick means to ease the pain of injured soldiers in the field. |  | | A standard part of a medic's equipment, the morphine Syrette consisted of a small tube of morphine with an attached hypodermic needle. |

 | | Although Morphine was critically lauded throughout their career, it is much more difficult to measure their level of commercial success. |  | | The DVD features clips from early Sandman shows, interviews from the Morphine tours, and various videos from other Sandman solo and group projects, such as Treat Her Right. |  | | This is the apparent result of a less-than-cooperative relationship between the surviving members of the band and their former labels, although both Colley and Conway contributed to the release of The Best Of Morphine: 1992-1995, released by Rykodisc in 2003. |

 | | Investigators learned about morphine’s mode of action by applying it and other opiates (including enkephalin) to guinea-pig intestines. |  | | More specifically many such receptors are found in the spinal cord’s substantia gelatinosa, a region where pain signals are first processed. |  | | Named after the Roman god of dreams, Morpheus, who also became the god of slumber, the drug morphine, appropriately enough, numbs pain, alters mood and induces sleep. |

 | | In other studies, researchers had found trace amounts of morphine in human and other animal tissues, but only a handful of believers thought morphine occurred naturally in the brain. |  | | Similarly, a drug called levodopa, a precursor to dopamine, is commonly used to treat Parkinson's disease. |  | | A morphine deficiency could also be the cause of some chronic pain, Stefano said. |

 | | Morphine were formed in 1990 by bassist/vocalist Mark Sandman, who had previously played with the bluesy alternative rock band Treat Her Right, and Dana Colley (tenor and baritone saxophone), a former member of the local Boston group Three Collers. |  | | The positive reception to Good set the stage for 1993's Cure for Pain, which received good reviews from a variety of music and mainstream publications upon its spring release. |  | | Morphine supported Cure for Pain with an extensive American and European tour that lasted throughout 1994, which helped the album sell over 300,000 copies -- an impressive feat for an independent release. |

| | Morphine: The Best of Morphine 1992-1995 - PopMatters Music Review |
 | | It's Morphine's 1993 album Cure For Pain, though, that most fans love the most, and it's evident the surviving band members feel the same way, since five of that album's songs are included. |  | | As much as fans loved Morphine back in the '90s, their albums, aside from 1993's stellar Cure For Pain, sometimes sounded a bit spotty, but they were never short of great moments, so a best-of compilation really works well in Morphine's case, giving us a solid hour's worth of great music. |  | | Yet this Boston trio, who dubbed themselves Morphine, managed to create a sound all their own over the 10 years they were together, fusing rock, jazz, and soul like no other band before or since. |

 | | From its inception in the early '90s, when Sandman was already well into his 30s, Morphine always excelled at illuminating the moments between: the moment between the reach and the first kiss, the moment between the skid and the crash. |  | | The moment the sax comes bleating in over Jane Scarpantoni's cello is as pure an emotional snapshot as Morphine have ever captured on disc. |  | | Morphine were headlining a music festival in Palestrina, Italy, when he had a massive heart attack. |

 | | Fronted by saxophone and two-string slide bass guitar, Morphine earned a modicum of critical praise for their prior recording, Good, but Cure for Pain has a harder edge and a distinctly bigger sound. |  | | Putting a twist on the classic rock trio format, Sandman plays a homemade two-string slide bass of which he is the world's sole practitioner. |  | | Cure for Pain is a most unlikely artistic breakthrough from a thoroughly unlikely band. |
