Description

Oxycodone is in the opioid drug class and is a potent pain reliever. Noroxymorphone is a major secondary metabolite of oxycodone. It is formed after O-demethylation of noroxycodone by CYP2D6 and to a lesser extent by N-demethylation of oxymorphone by Cyp3A4 and 2D6. Noroxymorphone has minimal analgesic effect when oxycodone is administered orally or systemically. Noroxymorphone is a powerful agonist to the mu-opioid receptor when oxycodone is administered intrathecally suggesting that noroxymorphone does not readily cross the blood-brain barrier.
