@@AVW_Dr.Dr. could you do a video on autacoids.I also came across this question on biology stack exchange and l would love your feedback:What structural features make a molecule a potent opioid receptor agonist?How can molecules with structures so radically different from those of endorphins mimic the action of endorphins?
Hi! I'm no expert on yawning, but this reference suggests that opioids inhibit oxytocin release. Oxytocin can trigger yawning. I propose that the oxytocin-mediated yawning is overactive when you stop an opioid due to upregulation of oxytocin receptors while taking an opioid, and then when you stop the opioid, the inhibition of oxytocin release is no longer there, but the oxytocin receptors are more abundant, so you have too much receptor activity overall. This is just a hypothesis I came up with. Still not sure.
❤❤❤ Thanks for the effort and information ….it is really appreciated
My pleasure 😊
This is better than all my opioid chapters from Anestehsiology residency
Which is sad ofc
So, anestehsiology residents will be grateful if you continue to release anestehsiology drugs lessons
Hipnos, benzo, vasoactive drugs, and IA 🤓
Thank you! I feel like I made this an eternity ago. Glad there's someone out there watching!
I hope you continue creating more great content ❤❤
Thank you very much! What sort of content would you like to see?

Thank You for sharing, the video was very insightful and helped me a lot!
You're very welcome!
Hi Can please explain the physiology behind excessive yawning in opioid withdrawal ?

@@AVW_Dr.Dr. Thank you. That is a possible hypothesis.
