Abstract

The aversive properties of naloxone-precipitated morphine withdrawal from acutely administered morphine were assessed following a single conditioning trial using both the place conditioning and the taste conditioning paradigm. In both paradigms, the aversive properties of naloxone-precipitated morphine withdrawal were evident up to 48 h after a single injection of morphine. In neither paradigm did naloxone treatment alone produce an aversion after a single conditioning trial. These results suggest that a single morphine exposure produces long-lasting effects that persist at least 48 h beyond the agonist effects of the opiate.
