Pharmacology[edit | edit source]

As a synthetic opioid, 3,4-MDO-U-47700 acts on the mu-opioid receptor, which is the same receptor targeted by natural opioids like morphine and synthetic opioids like fentanyl.

Effects[edit | edit source]

The effects of 3,4-MDO-U-47700 are similar to other opioids and include pain relief, sedation, and euphoria. However, as a novel psychoactive substance, the exact effects and safety profile of 3,4-MDO-U-47700 are not well known.

Legal Status[edit | edit source]

The legal status of 3,4-MDO-U-47700 varies by country. In some countries, it is a controlled substance, while in others it is not regulated.

Risks[edit | edit source]

As with all opioids, there are significant risks associated with the use of 3,4-MDO-U-47700. These include addiction, overdose, and death. The risk of these outcomes is likely increased due to the lack of information about the substance's effects and safety profile.
