Δεξτροπροποξυφαίνη

Dextropropoxyphene (also known as Propoxyphene and Darvon) is a synthetic opioid of the phenylpropylamine chemical class. Like other substances in its class, particularly tapentadol and tramadol, it produces mild euphoric, analgesic, sedative and antitussive effects when administered (typically orally, but sometimes intravenous or rectally).[citation needed] Notably, it is reported to produce significantly less euphoria in comparison to other opioids.[citation needed].
