Agonist

Health Care Term


Agonist is a term used in pharmacology to describe a drug that activates a receptor in the body by binding to it. This results in a response similar to that of the body's natural agonist, which is a substance that activates the receptor.

Agonists are commonly used in the health care industry as medications to treat various medical conditions. For example, opioids such as morphine and fentanyl are agonists that bind to opioid receptors to relieve pain. Bronchodilators such as albuterol are agonists that bind to beta-2 receptors in the lungs to help relieve symptoms of asthma.

Agonists can also be used in research to study the effects of drugs on the body. Scientists can create agonist drugs that specifically target certain receptors to better understand their functions. This can help in the development of new drugs for the treatment of various medical conditions.

Overall, agonists play an important role in the health care industry as medication and research tools to improve the health and well-being of patients.
