Description
Opium, derived from the opium poppy (Papaver somniferum), has been used for centuries for its analgesic and euphoric effects. However, chronic opium use is associated with a range of adverse health effects, particularly on the cardiovascular system. Understanding the impact of opium on cardiovascular health requires a comprehensive analysis of its physiological effects, mechanisms of action, and clinical manifestations. By examining these factors, we can gain insight into the complexities of opium-related cardiovascular complications and inform strategies for prevention and treatment.
