Abstract
The present study shows an important role of serotonin-1A receptors in morphine-induced hyperalgesia and addiction. It shows that buspirone, a prescription medicine for anxiety and depression can block addictive and hyperalgesic effects of morphine. Clinicians should consider buspirone as adjunctive therapy with morphine to improve therapeutic medications in pain.
