- jcoffland 10y agoYou should probably read the article. It's not morphine based.
- goldenkey 10y agoIt is targeting mu opioid receptors, mentioned in the article as "morphine receptor." It may not contain morphine, chemically, but neither does oxymorphone, it's only similar.. the only drug mentioned that actually contains morphine, ie. is morphine based is heroin. But having side chains and other additions can totally change a drugs' effects. Morphine-based is a poor distinction.
