Dipropanoylmorphine (Dipropionylmorphine in U.S. English) is an opiate derivative the 36-dipropanoyl ester of morphine. It was developed in 1972 as an analgesic. It is rarely used in some countries for the relief of severe pain such as that caused by terminal cancer as an alternative to diamorphine (heroin) and morphine.
