Evaluation of the Antihyperalgesic Effect of Tapentadol in Two Human Experimental Models

Summary

MOR-NRI like Tapentadol are expected to reduce signs and symptoms of central sensitisation besides effectively reducing pain intensity in pain. Human pain surrogate models can serve in this proof-of-concept study to further elucidate this assumption.
