Proheptazine is an opioid analgesic related to pethidine. It was invented in the 1960s.[1]

Proheptazine produces similar effects to other opioids, including analgesia, sedation, euphoria, dizziness and nausea.

In the United States it is a Schedule I Narcotic controlled substance with an ACSCN of 9643 and a 2013 annual aggregate manufacturing quota of zero. The salts in use are the citrate (free base conversion ratio 0.589), hydrobromide (0.773), and hydrochloride (0.883).[2][3]
