Morphine 10 mg tablets are a potent, opioid analgesic used for the relief of severe, chronic pain, often in sustained-release (SR/Continus) formulations. They work by altering the central nervous system's response to pain. Due to high addiction risk, they are strictly controlled and typically taken every 12 hours for chronic pain.
