Advances in the Use of Butorphanol Tartrate in Postoperative Analgesia after Cesarean Section

Abstract

As an agonist-antagonist opioid with good analgesic effect and few side effects, butorphanol tartrate has been widely used as a postoperative analgesic in clinical practice, and its special affinity for κ-opioid receptors makes Butorphanol particularly effective in postoperative analgesia after caesarean section. Meanwhile, with its unique characteristics, Butorphanol tartrate can be stably paired with other drugs alone or in combination with other drugs, and applied to post-cesarean section patients through different modes of administration to produce safe and highly effective analgesia and help the mothers to recover quickly after the operation.
