High-risk opioids

Name
High-risk opioids
Accession Number
DBCAT004680
Description

Strong or potent agonists of the opioid receptors, which include various types of phenanthrenes, phenylheptylamines, and phenylpiperidines. These agents are more potent, conferring a higher risk of adverse effects and drug interactions.

Drugs
DrugDrug Description
FentanylAn opioid analgesic used in anesthesia, for breakthrough cancer pain, or round the clock pain management.
MeperidineAn opioid agonist with analgesic and sedative properties used to manage severe pain.
MethadoneAn opioid analgesic indicated for management of severe pain that is not responsive to alternative treatments. Also used to aid in detoxification and maintenance treatment of opioid addiction.
OxymorphoneAn opioid analgesic used in the management of moderate-to-severe pain and for analgesic therapies.
HydromorphoneAn opioid analgesic used to treat moderate to severe pain when the use of an opioid is indicated.
MorphineAn opioid agonist used for the relief of moderate to severe acute and chronic pain.
CarfentanilCarfentanil is similar (but more potent) to the opioid analgesic fentanyl. It is used as a tranquilizer for large animals.
AlfentanilAn opioid agonist used to induce and maintain anesthesia, as well as an analgesic.
RemifentanilAn opioid analgesic used in anesthesia.
SufentanilAn opioid used to induce and maintain anesthesia, to act as an analgesic in labor and delivery, and to treat severe, acute pain.
DextropropoxypheneAn opioid analgesic used to treat mild to moderate pain.
