Norlyroc

Norlyroc (naloxegol) is a medication used for the treatment of opioid-induced constipation (OIC) in adults with chronic pain who are also taking opioids. It is a peripherally acting mu-opioid receptor antagonist, which means it works by blocking the effects of opioids on the gut without affecting pain relief.

How Does Norlyroc Work?

Blocking opioid receptors in the gastrointestinal tract: Naloxegol selectively binds to mu-opioid receptors in the gut, which reduces the constipating effects of opioids while allowing the central analgesic effects to remain intact. This helps to relieve constipation caused by opioid use.
