Abstract
⺠We utilize the stress-enhanced fear learning (SEFL) model of PTSD. ⺠Repeated morphine administration following trauma blocks SEFL ⺠Single morphine injection given immediately following trauma has no effect on SEFL. ⺠A single morphine injection given 48-hours after the trauma block SEFL ⺠Morphine may be an effective preventative therapy for populations at-risk for PTSD.
