A member asked:
Is naloxone pentazocine have the same function as hydrocodone?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Somewhat: Pentaxocine is a mixed opioid agonist - antagonist, which means that it not only relieves pain through the mu-opiate receptor but blocks it as well. Hydrocodone is a pure mu receptor agonist.
