Possible Interaction: Alpha-lipoic acid and Morphine

Research Papers that Mention the Interaction

Co-administration of alpha-lipoic acid (α-LA) inhibited the development of morphine tolerance and dependence, their associated biochemical alterations, except elevation of brain glutamate level, and their associated increase in brain inducible NO synthase mRNA and protein expressions.

In animals injected with morphine plus naloxone, which show altered pain thresholds, high fecal excretion and jumping behaviour, treatment with alpha-lipoic acid increases latency times, decreases fecal excretion and reduces jumping.
The administration of a-lipoic acid to rats given morphine or morphine plus naloxone lowers total MDA levels because of its peroxide scavenging capacity.
The administration of alpha-lipoic acid is demonstrated to control the alterations in plasma glucose levels, peroxide values or behavioural profile in animals receiving morphine or morphine plus naloxone.
The injection of alpha-lipoic acid decreases glycemia in rats treated with morphine or morphine plus naloxone.
