New nonaddicting drug may replace morphine breakthrough
Washington reports a nonaddicting pain drug named Win 20,228 showing promise as a morphine substitute. Tested at Lexington Kentucky Addiction Research Center, it prevents addiction in long term illness and could reduce illicit trade if approved by the FDA within a year. Developed by Sterling Winthrop, it lacks analgesic effect in animals but relieves post operative pain in humans at 30 to 40 mg versus 10 mg morphine.
