What is Opana ER 40mg in Australia

Opana ER 40mg is a medication used to manage moderate or severe pain in Australia. It is commonly prescribed for individuals with cancer, serious injuries, or post-surgical pain. While it can also be used for chronic pain, nonpharmacologic and nonopioid pharmacologic therapies are preferred due to the risks associated with long-term opioid use. When used as directed by a medical professional, these medications are legal but have a high potential for misuse. Opioid receptors in the brain, spinal cord, and throughout the body transmit pain signals. Prescription opioids bind to these receptors, reducing the transmission of pain signals and thus diminishing the sensation of pain. Additionally, opioids can produce feelings of pleasure and relaxation.
