Morphine is a natural alkaloid found in the opium poppy, and in much smaller amounts in other plants and animals. Morphine is a potent opioid pain-reliever, but it is also a narcotic and a euphoric and is highly addictive. Morphine and its various synthetic derivatives, including oxycodone, are responsible for the current opioid epidemic in the United States. | |
