Loperamide is an anti-diarrheal agent that is available as various over-the-counter products for treating diarrhea. The drug was first synthesized in 1969 and used medically in 1976. It is a highly lipophilic synthetic phenylpiperidine opioid that is structurally similar to opiate receptor agonists such as [diphenoxylate] and [haloperidol]. Due to pharmacological properties, loperamide has been misused and abused to self-manage opioid withdrawal symptoms and to induce euphoria.[A251610, A251625] However, loperamide is associated with a risk for experiencing a range of adverse effects, often life-threatening, if taking for non-therapeutic reasons or at doses higher than the recommended dose.
Dihydrocodeine is an opioid analgesic used as an alternative or adjunct to codeine to treat moderate to severe pain, severe dyspnea, and cough. It is semi-synthetic, and was developed in Germany in 1908 during an international search to find a more effective antitussive agent to help reduce the spread of airborne infectious diseases such as tuburculosis. It was marketed in 1911.
