Metopon was developed as an analgesic opium derivative. This drug has a high affinity to the mu-opioid receptor and produces antinociception through this receptor. Metopon was available in Canada only in tablet form for oral administration; however, because of the drug addiction, the Drug Addiction Committee recommended its limited use.
