Cognitive function in patients with chronic pain treated with opioids: characteristics and associated factors.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Intramuscular scopolamine plus morphine premedication is traditionally used when prominent sedative or antisialogogue effect is needed. Knowledge of the pharmacokinetics of scopolamine is limited due to low plasma concentrations found after therapeutic doses. This investigation compares the pharmacokinetics ...
