Summary

Significant public health concerns have arisen from the intravenous misuse of oxymorphone, a potent mu-opioid pain medication. However, little is known about its abuse potential relative to other mu-opioid analgesics. The present study is designed to examine the abuse liability of intravenous oxymorphone compared to other mu opioid agonists (oxycodone, and hydromorphone) among physically dependent opioid abusers.
