Morfina is a powerful pain-relieving medication derived from the opium poppy plant. It belongs to a class of drugs known as opioids, which work by binding to specific receptors in the brain and spinal cord to reduce the perception of pain. Morfina is often prescribed for severe pain, such as that experienced after surgery or due to chronic conditions. While effective for pain management, Morfina can also lead to side effects, including drowsiness, constipation, and the potential for addiction. Due to these risks, it is typically used under strict medical supervision, and patients are monitored closely to ensure safe usage.
