1 answer:

5 0

Meperidine has hypnotic and analgesic effects following intravenous dose, and the analgesic effects can extend for up to 4 hours.

A painkiller with a prescription is meperidine hydrochloride. It is an opioid, a class of drug. When a patient consumes more meperidine hydrochloride than is usual or advised, an overdose results.

Meperidine usage and addiction present a danger that can result in overdose and death. Additionally, meperidine may result in serious, perhaps fatal, breathing issues. Your doctor should prescribe the least effective dose of meperidine for the shortest amount of time to reduce your risk.
