Opium Deodorized is an opioid, sometimes called a narcotic.

Opium is derived from the seed pod of a poppy plant. It works by increasing smooth muscle tone and decreasing fluid secretions in the intestines. This slows the movement of bowel matter through the intestines.

Opium Deodorized (sometimes called "opium tincture") is used to treat diarrhea.

Opium Deodorized may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.
