Prodine (trade names Prisilidine and Nisentil) is an opioid analgesic that is an analog of pethidine (meperidine). There are two isomers of prodine alphaprodine and betaprodine. Betaprodine is some 5x more potent than alphaprodine but is metabolised more rapidly and only alphaprodine was developed for medicinal use.
