Non-opioid medications are antipyretic, analgesic, and anti-inflammatory in nature. These medications help decrease the development of pain in the peripheral nervous system by releasing the enzyme cyclooxygenase at the site of injury, which in turn blocks the production of prostaglandins. As per the stats provided by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, almost 25 to 35 million people were abused by opioid globally. Due to rise in the rate of severe side-effects and addiction related to the prolonged use of opioid medication there has been an increased demand for the use of non-opioid therapeutics globally.
