Propoxyphene
Propoxyphene is a synthetic opioid analgesic of the diphenylheptane class that acts primarily as a mu-opioid receptor agonist to produce analgesia, sedation, and euphoria, with potency approximately half that of codeine. It was used for mild to moderate pain management but was withdrawn globally due to its cardiac toxicity, particularly QT prolongation and potentially fatal arrhythmias even at therapeutic doses.
