Preferred Label : Oxycodone Terephthalate;
NCIt definition : The terephthalate salt of oxycodone, a methylether of oxymorphone and semisynthetic,
agonistic opioid with analgesic and antitussic properties. Oxycodone terephthalate
exerts its analgesic actions by binding to the mu-receptors in the central nervous
system (CNS), thereby mimicking the effects of endogenous opiates. By binding to the
mu-opioid receptors, oxycodone terephthalate also causes euphoria, anxiolysis, miosis,
sedation, physical dependence, constipation, respiratory depression as well as a depressive
effect on the cough center in the medulla.;
