Question 1 of 5
Which of the following drugs was most likely prescribed to the woman suffering from osteoarthritis to alleviate joint pain?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Buprenorphine, as a partial agonist at µ (mu) receptors and a full agonist at κ (kappa) receptors, is a suitable choice for managing pain in a patient with osteoarthritis. Its dual mechanism of action can provide effective pain relief while reducing the risk of tolerance and dependence associated with full opioid agonists. Therefore, in the case of worsening joint pain in an osteoarthritis patient, buprenorphine would be a likely choice to alleviate the pain effectively.
