Description
The air-dried, milky exudation from incised unripe capsules of Papaver somniferum. This resin contains two groups of alkaloids: phenanthrenes (including morphine and codeine) and benzylisoquinolines (including papaverine). Morphine is by far the most prevalent alkaloid (10-16%) in opium, and its pharmacological properties account for the licit and illicit use of opium.

Of the pharmacologically active constituents, several alkaloids, including morphine, codeine, papaverine and noscapine, have wide clinical use. Opium produces both physical and psychological dependence and is controlled under Schedule I of the 1961 Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs.
