Morphine Sulfate Er

Drug Info for morphine sulfate er

Morphine immediate-release tablets and oral solution are used to relieve severe, acute pain (pain that begins suddenly, has a specific cause, and is expected to go away when the cause of the pain is healed) and chronic pain in people who are expected to need an opioid pain medication and who cannot be treated with other pain medications. Morphine extended-release tablets and capsules are used to relieve severe and persistent pain in people who are expected to need an opioid pain medication around the clock and who cannot be treated with other pain medications. Morphine extended-release tablets and capsules should not be used to treat pain that can be controlled by medication that is taken as needed. Morphine is in a class of medications called opiate (narcotic) analgesics. It works by changing the way the brain and nervous system respond to pain.
