Rationale 1: Opioid blockers such as naloxone (Narcan) inhibit both the mu and kappa receptors.
Rationale 2: Some opioids stimulate a particular receptor; others block a receptor.
Rationale 3: Opioid blockers such as naloxone (Narcan) inhibit both the mu and kappa receptors.
Rationale 4: Opioids interact with at least six types of receptors: mu (types one and two), kappa, sigma, delta, and epsilon.
Rationale 5: Opioids interact with at least six types of receptors: mu (types one and two), kappa, sigma, delta, and epsilon.

Global Rationale: Opioid blockers such as naloxone (Narcan) inhibit both the mu and kappa receptors. Some opioids stimulate a particular receptor; others block a receptor. Opioids interact with at least six types of receptors: mu (types one and two), kappa, sigma, delta, and epsilon.
