Brief description Chronic pain is particularly difficult to treat. Whilst currently used opioid drugs are effective in acute pain, they are either ineffective in chronic pain or have considerable side effects. In this project we will develop a new class of analgesics that have a different mechanism of action to traditional analgesics. It is hoped that these new drugs will provide long term pain relief without debilitating side effects.
