Good question Jerry... from Gfp's post:

Practical use of BIMU-8

The most obvious practical use of BIMU-8 is to combine it with opiates in order to counteract the dangerous respiratory depressing properties of the latter.[1] BIMU-8 does not affect the painkilling properties of opiates, which means that if combined with BIMU-8, large therapeutic doses of opiates could theoretically be given to humans without risking a decrease in breathing rate. Studies have shown BIMU-8 to be effective in rats at counteracting the respiratory depression caused by the potent opioid fentanyl, which has caused many accidental deaths in humans. However no human trials of BIMU-8 have yet been carried out.
