& PURPOSES
MORPHINE
PURPOSE

Morphine is considered as a drug; however, it is

also used in medication as well. Morphine is used in
the medical treatment in order to reduce the pain. In
the long term treatment, using morphine should be
limited, and it should only be used in the emergence
time. Other than that, using lots of Morphine
overtime will result as an addiction to the drug.
