The opiate class of narcotics include morphine, codeine, and heroin. Synthetic opiates are hydrocodone, hydromorphone (Dilaudid), oxycodone (Percodan), meperidine (Demerol) and propoxyphene (Darvon, Darvocet) and methadone which is a synthetic opiate used for heroin detoxification. These drugs are used medicinally to relieve pain, but also have a high potential for abuse. Opiates tend to relax the user. A user will feel an immediate rush when the opiates are injected or smoked (heroin), but may soon experience other unpleasant side effects including restlessness, nausea, and vomiting.
