Although opioid use is lower among pregnant women, trends mirror the general population. While pediatric exposures largely occur through prescriptions. This review presents a novel landscape analysis of pharmacology knowledge gaps in opioids in the maternal and pediatric populations. We queried PubMed for studies on 27 opioids, focusing on pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacoepidemiology (PE) or clinical trials (CT) in maternal and pediatric populations. English-language publications were included, and data were synthesized to identify gaps. Additionally, MarketScan claims data and United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) drug labels were analyzed to compare scientific evidence, opioid prescriptions/orders, and FDA recommendations. Morphine, fentanyl, methadone, and buprenorphine are the most researched opioids in PK and PE/CT literature in both populations, but hydrocodone, oxycodone, and codeine are the most prescribed. Nine opioids lack FDA labels, and four of the 18 labeled drugs lack any human data. Hydrocodone, oxycodone, and codeine labels include lactation-focused PK information, with some pediatric clinical data for the latter two. Seven opioids lack PK and PE/CT studies in the maternal population, and PK research is absent for seven opioids, and PE/CT data is lacking for eight opioids in the pediatric population. PK studies often focus on labor, delivery, and lactation accompanied by neonatal data, whereas pregnancy research mainly occurs in PE studies. In pediatric populations, study types are evenly distributed among children, but PE studies focus more on adolescents. Drug concentration is the most reported parameter in PK studies, and neonatal opioid withdrawal syndrome (NOWS) is a key outcome in both PK and PE studies. NOWS is also researched more using real-world data, whereas neurodevelopmental outcomes are often captured in prospective observational studies. There is substantial disparity between the most commonly researched and prescribed opioids. In particular, the opioid pharmacology knowledge gaps are larger in pregnant women and for the highly prescribed opioids hydrocodone and oxycodone. The limited human data in FDA labels underscores the need for additional studies. Studies using real-world data can potentially help address these gaps.</p>","PeriodicalId":20013,"journal":{"name":"Pharmacotherapy","volume":" ","pages":"367-385"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12149789/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144079548","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Total rADS scores were calculated as sums of ratings of all drugs taken by participants; cSAA was measured in the participants' sera; cognitive performance included measures of executive function, language, processing speed, verbal memory, visuospatial memory, working memory, and an overall composite score.</p><p><strong>Statistical analysis: </strong>The relationship between rADS total scores and cSAA was examined using a Spearman rank correlation coefficient. Relationships between rADS total scores and cognitive performance measures were explored in multivariable linear regression models.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>The sample included 310 participants (mean [standard deviation] age: 72 (6) years; 61.6% were women, and 81.6% had MCI [with or without rMDD]). Total rADS scores were positively correlated with cSAA (Spearman's correlation coefficient: 0.178, p = 0.0016). Total rADS scores were not significantly associated with cognitive performance.</p><p><strong>Conclusions: </strong>The revised scale is recommended as a replacement for the original ADS since it includes ratings for more drugs and was significantly, albeit weakly, associated with cSAA, similar to previous findings using the original ADS.</p>","PeriodicalId":20013,"journal":{"name":"Pharmacotherapy","volume":" ","pages":"332-340"},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12149784/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144011346","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
