Examples of full agonists are oxycodone, methadone, codeine, heroin and morphine. PARTIAL AGONISTS. Partial agonists are drugs that bind primarily to mu opioid receptors and cause them to produce endorphins but to a much lesser extent than full agonists. BuprenorphineÂ®, SuboxoneÂ® and SubutexÂ® are partial agonists.
Some opioid antagonists are not pure antagonists but in fact do produce some weak opioid partial agonist effects, and can produce analgesic effects when administered in high doses to opioid-naive individuals.altrexone is also a partial inverse agonist, and this property is exploited in treatment of opioid addiction, as a sustained course of low-dose naltrexone can reverse the altered homeostasis which results from long-term abuse of opioid agonist drugs.
