Overview
Nalorphine is a mixed opioid agonist–antagonist. It acts at two opioid receptors—at the mu receptor it has antagonistic effects, and at the kappa receptors it exerts high-efficacy agonistic characteristics. It is used to reverse opioid overdose and (starting in the 1950s) in a challenge test to determine opioid dependence.
