Xorphanol (TR-5379) is an opioid analgesic from the morphinan family of drugs. It is a mixed agonist–antagonist at the μ-opioid receptor and produces potent analgesic effects with little potential for dependence or abuse.Side effects in animal studies were relatively mild with only sedation and nausea being prominent although it also produced convulsions at the highest dose tested.
