About Opioid-induced Constipation
Opioids are administered to the patients with acute and non-cancer chronic pain. They have several adverse gastrointestinal effects, one of which is opioid-induced constipation. The opioid analgesics produce analgesia by the activation of the mu receptors found in the CNS and PNS. These drugs affect the motility, tone, and contractility of the bowel functions, which results in the delay in the transit of fecal contents. The opioids also cause a reduction in the secretion of digestive enzymes and also cause partial gastroparesis. Some of the common symptoms of opioid-induced constipation are hard and dry stools, painful defecation, bloating, distention and bulged abdomen, feeling lethargic, and loss of appetite. Opioid-induced constipation can be managed by changing lifestyle along with the use of targeted therapies and other OTC and off-label drugs.
Technavio's analysts forecast the global opioid-induced constipation market to grow at a CAGR of 30.18% over the period 2014-2019.
