    Clinical Applications

    Nalbuphine Hydrochloride is indicated for the management of pain severe enough to require an opioid analgesic and for which alternative treatments are inadequate. Nalbuphine Hydrochloride can also be used as a supplement to balanced anaesthesia, for preoperative and postoperative analgesia and for obstetrical analgesia during labour and delivery.

    Mode of Administration

    Nalbuphine Hydrochloride is administered in injection form, as a solution (liquid) to inject subcutaneously (under the skin), intravenously (into a vein), or intramuscularly (into a muscle).

    Pharmacological Effects

    Nalbuphine Hydrochloride binds to kappa-, mu- and delta-opioid receptors but not to sigma-opioid receptors. This Opioid analgesic exerts its analgesic actions primarily through kappa-opioid-receptor agonism and partially through mu-opioid receptor agonism.
