Abstract
A non-addictive analgesic co-formulation comprising an opioid agonist in an amount sufficient to confer analgesia in a mammalian subject and a neutral opioid antagonist in an amount sufficient to inhibit peripheral effects, and insufficient to block substantial central effects, of the opioid agonist in the subject. Such formulations, and methods of using same, may also deter diversion, inhibit peripheral effects, and reduce addiction liability.
