Alphamethadol is a synthetic opioid analgesic. Alphamethadol is composed of two isomers itself, L-α-methadol, and D-α-methadol. L-α-methadol is an important active metabolite of levacetylmethadol (LAAM), a medication therapy for individuals addicted to opiates that provides an alternative to methadone. Isomers of Alphamethadol bind to and activate the μ-opioid receptor; they are active as opioid analgesics.
