"hich of the following statements is true of the differences between methohexital and midazolam? Multiple Choice Midazolam produces analgesia at small doses whereas methohexital produces amnesia at anesthetic doses. Midazolam induces anesthesia quickly, but methohexital does not. Methohexital has a specific receptor antagonist but midazolam does not. Midazolam is available for rectal administrątion, whereas methohexital is administered intravenously.

Buprenorphine is a partial agonist at mu opioid receptors and is used for opioid maintenance treatment (OMT) in patients with opioid use disorder (OUD). Buprenorphine is formulated in a product that contains the mu opioid receptor antagonist, naloxone. What is the purpose of naloxone in this formulation? O To increase the magnitude of response to the partial agonist. O To reduce the likelihood that buprenorphine will be injected intravenously. O To delay the response to buprenorphine. O To provide pain relief to the patient who has OUD.
