Pain Relief: Demerol is used for the short-term management of moderate to severe pain, such as postoperative pain, pain from injuries, or pain related to medical procedures.
Anesthesia Adjunct: It is sometimes used in conjunction with anesthesia during surgery.
Mechanism of Action
Meperidine binds to opioid receptors in the brain and spinal cord, altering the perception of and response to pain. It mimics the action of endogenous endorphins, which are natural pain-relieving compounds produced by the body.
