  15. Better Pain Reliever Found (Scientific American)
      "Morphine and other opioids work wonders for pain. Unfortunately, their effectiveness declines over time while their addictiveness grows, meaning patients need the drug even as it affords them less and less relief. But new research into the cellular workings of opioids offers a promising new pathway to improved pain relief--without the addiction--by triggering one receptor and blocking another."

      "Medicinal chemist Philip Portoghese of the University of Minnesota and his colleagues began by studying two of the four major opioid receptors in the cells of the central nervous system. Each bears the name of a Greek letter and the chemists focused on the Mu and Delta receptors. Previous research had shown that drugs that linked up with Mu receptors lasted longer with less addiction when combined with drugs that blocked Delta receptors. But it was not known whether the two channels worked separately or in concert to improve the overall effect." 12-05

  31. Pain Relief Should Be Offered for Invasive Procedures (Scientific American)
      "The least forgivable excuse for not alleviating pain would be for medical culture (and maybe society at large) simply to believe that pain ought to be part of medicine and must be endured. Weighing the risks and benefits of pain control should ultimately be the province of the patient. If doctors say there is no pain control for a given procedure, patients should ask why not. People undergoing invasive tests should at least be offered options for pain relief—even if they decide after all to bite the bullet." 6-03
