Alvimopan
Alvimopan is a drug which behaves as a peripherally acting μ-opioid antagonist. With limited ability to cross the blood–brain barrier, many of the undesirable side-effects of the opioid agonists such as constipation are minimized without affecting analgesia or precipitating withdrawals. The Food and Drug Administration reviewed the safety and efficacy data for alvimopan and approved its use in May 2008.
