Dextromoramide is a synthetic opioid analgesic with a chemical structure similar to methadone. It is a potent μ-opioid receptor agonist, producing analgesia, sedation, and euphoria. Dextromoramide was synthesized in the 1950s and was initially marketed as a pain reliever. It has been studied for its potential to treat chronic pain conditions, including neuropathic pain, cancer pain, and post-operative pain. Its use has declined due to its high risk of addiction and abuse. Despite its potential clinical benefits, dextromoramide is a Schedule II controlled substance in many countries due to its addictive properties. Research continues to explore the therapeutic potential of dextromoramide, while acknowledging the challenges associated with its use.'
Dextromoramide: An opioid analgesic structurally related to METHADONE and used in the treatment of severe pain. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p1070)
dextromoramide : An N-acylpyrrolidine arising by formal condensation of pyrrolidine with (3S)-3-methyl-4-(morpholin-4-yl)-2,2-diphenylbutanoic acid. An opioid analgesic that is structurally related to methadone, it is more poweful than morphine but shorter acting. It has been used (particularly as the hydrogen tartrate salt) for the treatment of severe pain, but was discontinued in the UK in 2004.

Glaucoma An ocular disease, occurring in many forms, having as its primary characteristics an unstable or a sustained increase in the intraocular pressure which the eye cannot withstand without damage to its structure or impairment of its function. The consequences of the increased pressure may be manifested in a variety of symptoms, depending upon type and severity, such as excavation of the optic disk, hardness of the eyeball, corneal anesthesia, reduced visual acuity, seeing of colored halos around lights, disturbed dark adaptation, visual field defects, and headaches.
