Morphine and Bronchospasm

by Siss

I have often used another opiod in patients with a history of asthma because of the possible side effect of bronchospasm associated with Morphine. I am wondering if anyone has safely used Morphine with astmatics or what is the favorite opiod used in PACU for them.
