Synthetic opioids are a class of medication that are created in labs with a specific chemical structure. The exact molecules that make up synthetic opioids are wholly man-made, generally in a pharmaceutical laboratory. Synthetic opioids are frequently pressed into pills and sold on the street as fake painkillers. These are used as cutting agents in heroin and cocaine. Overdosing on synthetic opioids happens frequently due to their potency.

Synthetic opioids including fentanyl, its derivatives, and recently developed analogues arewidely available in recent years in the market for recreational drugs. The synthetic phenylpiperidine known as fentanyl has both analgesic and anaesthetic effects. It can be purchased separately, added as an adulterant to heroin, cocaine, and amphetamines, or used as a component of illegal prescription drugs. Numerous other potent synthetic opioids, many of which have chemical structures that do not resemble morphine or fentanyl but are active at the -opioid receptor, have recently appeared on the illicit drug market in addition to fentanyl and the fentanyl analogues such as carfentanyl, acetylfentanyl, butyrylfentanyl, and furanylfentanyl. The benzamide-based opioids U-47700 and AH-7921, tianeptine, and MT-45 are among new synthetic opioids.
