Desocodeine is a potent semi-synthetic opioid which is the penultimate intermediate in the manufacture of desomorphine from codeine.[1][2] Desocodeine is a potent analgesic, being as potent as morphine.It is partially metabolized into desomorphine, among others, after parenteral and oral administration.[3][4]

Since 1936, desocodeine has been classified in the US as a Schedule I controlled substance under the Controlled Substances Act, indicating that the FDA has determined that there are no legal medicinal uses for it.[5]

In Canada, desocodeine is classified as a Schedule I drug under the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act.
