Abstract Background Low concentrations of morphine are required for safe dosing for intrathecal injections. Sometimes, manual dilution of morphine is
The maximum safe (non-lethal) dose of free morphine was 130 mg/kg. The highest dose of liposomal morphine administered (1650 mg/kg) did not cause death in any animal. Duration of analgesia was significantly prolonged with the highest dose of liposomal morphine (21.5 /- 5.3 h) compared to the maximum safe dose of free morphine (3.7 /- 0.75 h
