Metabolite Identification
Common NameLevorphanol
DescriptionLevorphanol, also known as levo dromoran or dea no. 9220, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as morphinans. These are polycyclic compounds with a four-ring skeleton with three condensed six-member rings forming a partially hydrogenated phenanthrene moiety, one of which is aromatic while the two others are alicyclic. It is the "left-handed" (levorotatory) stereoisomer of racemorphan, that is the racemic mixture of the two stereoisomers with differing pharmacology. Levorphanol is a drug which is used for the management of moderate to severe pain or as a preoperative medication where an opioid analgesic is appropriate. Levorphanol shows a high rate of psychotomimetic side effects such as hallucinations and delirium, which have been attributed to its binding to and activation of the KOR. Levorphanol is the INN, BAN, and DCF. Levorphanol is a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa). In humans, levorphanol is involved in levorphanol action pathway. The duration of action is generally long compared to other comparable analgesics and varies from 4 hours to as much as 15 hours. Levorphanol is listed under the Single Convention On Narcotic Drugs 1961 and is regulated like morphine in most countries. The drug has been in medical use in the United States since 1953. Levorphanol is a potentially toxic compound.
