Molecular Weight 356.525
Groups illicit
Monoisotopic Weight 356.192234218
Pharmacology
Indication Not Available
Mechanism of action 3-Methylthiofentanyl binds to the mu, delta, and kappa opioid receptors. These ultimately lead to decreased pain sensation as well as a number of side effects, such as euphoria, sedation, depressed breathing.
Absorption Not Available
Protein binding Not Available
Biotransformation Not Available
Route of elimination Not Available
Toxicity Side effects of fentanyl analogues are similar to those of fentanyl itself, which include itching, nausea and potentially serious respiratory depression which can be life-threatening.
