Submental nalbuphine exhibits improved efficacy in ameliorating acute pain in prehospital emergent conditions; a comparative study with conventional intramuscular using gamma scintigraphy.

Background: Nalbuphine (NLB) is a kappa-agonist and mu-partial antagonist, widely used for opioid withdrawal de-addiction, opioid-induced pruritis and as emergent analgesia.

Objective: The present study aimed to assess the safety and efficacy of NLB in pain sensitization, through a submental route so as to provide faster management in emergent situations.

Materials & Methods: In-vivo efficacy and safety studies of NLB-submental injection were assessed in Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats.
