Rats given morphine-codeine combinations exhibited significantly
increased hotplate reaction times compared with rats given
an analgesic dose of one agent alone. Genera, species, sex, protein
binding and metabolism were studied as possible implicating factors
for the increased reaction times. Both male and female rats exhibited
increased reaction time, and showed...
