Suppression of evoked potentials of the EEG are indicators of analgesia. Tifluadom induces latency changes which are reversed by the kappa-antagonist Mr 2266. Naloxone reverses peak suppression which indicates an additional interaction with the my-opioid-receptor. The specific benzodiazepine antagonist Ro 15-1788 is not effective in reversing peak-changes. Therefore nociceptive stimuli are modulated by tifluadom not only through the interaction with kappa- but also with my-opioid-receptors.
