Abstract
Opioids are used widely in the practice of pediatric anesthesia and pediatric perioperative medicine. The benefits of opioids are well documented, and their pharmacology has been extensively studied. Nonetheless special care is important when using these agents in the pediatric population. This article addresses the developmental pharmacologic changes that occur with opioids as well as their most common clinical uses.Mesh：
