Anti-Propoxyphene (Clone PROP-4721) - 1.0 mg

Propoxyphene

Propoxyphene, once prescribed as a pain reliever, is an opioid analgesic that has been withdrawn from the market due to safety concerns. Its primary method of action involves binding to opioid receptors in the brain and spinal cord, inhibiting the transmission of pain signals and altering the perception of pain. Despite its analgesic properties, propoxyphene was associated with cardiac toxicity, leading to its withdrawal from pharmaceutical use in 2010. Diagnostic testing for propoxyphene abuse typically involves urine analysis, as the drug and its metabolites can be detected in urine samples.
