opium
Juice thickened by drying the fruit of a poppy, used as a drug to induce
a state of euphoria.
Prolonged use leads to intoxication resulting in nausea, difficulty
breathing, miosis (narrowing) of the pupil and chronic constipation.
In cases of acute poisoning, call the emergency doctor who may prescribe
an injection of Nalorphine and use artificial respiration if breathing
complications.
