Ethylmorphine Uses

 Ethylmorphine (CAS NO.76-58-4) has been invented in Germany at Merck in 1884 and was used as a weaker alternative to heroin for all indications. It is used as an antitussive to treat dry cough and also as a moderately strong analgesic. It is most widely used in ophthalmology for removing inflammation products from the eyes.

Ethylmorphine Specification

 Ethylmorphine ,its cas register number is 76-58-4. It also can be called Ethomorphine ; Codethyline ; Dionine, and Ethyl morphine . It has a hydromorphone analogue, and a dihydromorphine analogue known as ethyldihydromorphine, and  is potentially habit-forming and can generate drug dependence of the codeine type.  Ethylmorphine (CAS NO.76-58-4) is 'less potent than morphine' but 'more potent than codeine' by a small percentage.Taking it in combination with alcohol or other drugs that have a suppressive effect on the central nervous system boosts both drugs' effects, creating a dangerous combination. It is converted to morphine in the human liver by the CYP450-isozyme CYP2D6, similarly to codeine. In most countries and internationally ethylmorphine and codeine are regulated much the same way.
