Quadazocine

Quadazocine (WIN-44,441) is an opioid antagonist of the benzomorphan family which is used in scientific research.^[1] It acts as a silent antagonist at all three of the major opioid receptors—μ, κ, and δ,^[1][2] but with a significant preference in affinity for the μ receptor and the κ₂ subtype.^[3][4][5] As such, it has been touted as a "κ₂-selective" antagonist, though this is not entirely accurate on account of its similar affinity for the μ receptor.^[3][5] As would be expected, quadazocine reverses the effects (e.g., analgesia) of opioid agonists like morphine and fentanyl in animals.^[1][6]
