Overview
An opioid analgesic that is an optical isomer of levopropoxyphene. Used to treat mild pain and often used for its antitussive properties. It has been taken off the market in Europe and theUS due to concerns of health issues relating to the Kidney, Liver, Heart and Respiratory Disorders. Just a bit stronger than Tramadol.

EffectsPsychonautWikiEffectIndex
Visual
1Pupil constriction
Pupil constriction (also called pinpoint pupils or miosis) can be described as the reduction of the size of a person's pupils under normal lighting conditions. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of opioid compounds, such as heroin, kratom, tramadol, and fentanyl.

5Anxiety suppression
Anxiety suppression (also known as anxiolysis or minimal sedation) is medically recognized as a partial to complete suppression of a person’s ability to feel anxiety, general unease, and negative feelings of both psychological and physiological tension. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of anxiolytic compounds which primarily include GABAergic depressants, such as benzodiazepines, alcohol, GHB, and gabapentinoids.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Cognitive euphoria
Cognitive euphoria (semantically the opposite of cognitive dysphoria) is medically recognized as a cognitive and emotional state in which a person experiences intense feelings of well-being, elation, happiness, excitement, and joy. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of opioids, entactogens, stimulants, and GABAergic depressants. However, it can also occur to a lesser extent under the influence of hallucinogenic compounds such as psychedelics, dissociatives, and cannabinoids.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Compulsive redosing
Compulsive redosing is the experience of a powerful and difficult to resist urge to continuously redose a psychoactive substance in an effort to increase or maintain the subjective effects which it induces. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of a wide variety of compounds, such as opioids, stimulants, GABAergics, and entactogens.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Confusion
Confusion is an impairment of abstract thinking demonstrated by an inability to think with one’s customary clarity and coherence. It is most commonly induced under the influence of heavy dosages of hallucinogenic compounds, such as psychedelics, dissociatives, synthetic cannabinoids, and deliriants.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Dream potentiation
Dream potentiation is an effect that increases the subjective intensity, vividness, and frequency of sleeping dream states. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of oneirogenic compounds, a class of hallucinogen that is used to specifically potentiate dreams when taken before sleep.

1Itchiness
Itchiness is the sensation that causes a person the desire or reflex to scratch at their skin. It is most commonly induced under the influence of heavy dosages of opioid compounds, such as heroin, fentanyl, tramadol, and kratom.

2Physical euphoria
Physical euphoria can be described as feelings of pleasure and comfort within and across one's body. This euphoria typically feels somewhat comparable to the endorphin rushes felt during states of excitement or love, the coziness of a comfortable bed, and the rush of an orgasm. It is most commonly induced under the influence of heavy dosages of a wide variety of compounds, such as opioids, stimulants, psychedelics, and GABAergics.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Respiratory depression
Respiratory depression can be described as a reduced urge to breathe that can be fatal depending on its intensity. It is most commonly induced under the influence of heavy dosages of depressant compounds, particularly opioids, such as heroin and fentanyl, or GABAergics, such as alcohol and GHB. However, it is worth noting that otherwise safe dosages of these compounds can become fatal when combined with even small amounts of other classes of depressant.

10Appetite suppression
Appetite suppression can be described as the experience of a distinct decrease in a person's sense of hunger and appetite in a manner which can result in both a lesser desire to eat food and a decreased enjoyment of its taste. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of stimulant compounds, such as amphetamine, methylphenidate, nicotine, MDMA, and cocaine.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Constipation
Constipation can be described as bowel movements that are infrequent or hard to pass. It usually results in painful defecation and small, compact faeces. It is most commonly induced under the influence of heavy dosages of opioid compounds, such as heroin, tramadol, fentanyl, and kratom.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Cough suppression
Cough suppression can be described as a decreased desire and need to cough. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of antitussive compounds such as, codeine, pholcodine, dextromethorphan, noscapine, and butamirate.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Decreased libido
Decreased libido can be described as a distinct decrease in feelings of sexual desire, the anticipation of sexual activity, and the likelihood that a person will view the context of a given situation as sexual in nature. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of a wide variety of compounds, such as, opioids, antipsychotics and SSRI's, and dissociatives.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Difficulty urinating
Difficulty urinating (also known as urinary retention) can be described as the experience of a decreased ability to pass urine. It is most commonly induced under the influence of heavy dosages of stimulant and opioid compounds, such as heroin, fentanyl, kratom, amphetamine, MDMA, and 4-FA.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Dizziness
Dizziness can be described as the perception of a spinning or swaying motion which typically causes a difficulty in standing or walking. It is most commonly induced under the influence of heavy dosages of GABAergic depressant compounds, such as benzodiazepines, alcohol, and GHB.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Nausea
Nausea can be described as a sensation of unease and discomfort in the upper stomach combined with an involuntary urge to vomit. It is most commonly induced under the influence of heavy dosages of a wide variety of compounds, such as psychedelics, opioids, GABAergics, deliriants, dissociatives, and stimulants.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Orgasm suppression
Orgasm suppression (formally known as anorgasmia) can be described as a difficulty or complete inability to achieve orgasm despite adequate sexual stimulation. This effect commonly occurs on opioids and dissociatives which have been reported to decrease one's ability to feel sexual pleasure, which may be attributed to their tactile suppressing effects or through some other biological mechanism. It is also a well-known side effect of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs).
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Pain relief
Pain relief can be described as an effect which suppresses negative sensations such as aches and pains. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of a very wide variety of compounds, such as opioids, GABAergics, GABApentinoids, cannabinoids, dissociatives, muscle relaxants, and NSAID's.
Open full explainer on EffectIndex↗Sedation
Sedation can be described as a decrease in a person's physical energy levels which are interpreted as discouraging when it comes to wakefulness, movement, performing tasks, talkativeness, and general exercise. It is most commonly induced under the influence of moderate dosages of depressant compounds, such as opioids, GABAergics, and antipsychotics.
