Butorphanol, sold under the brand name Stadol among others, is an opioid used to treat pain.[1] As a nasal spray, it may be used to treat migraines.[1] By injection into a vein or muscle, it may be used to treat moderate to severe pain.[1][2] Onset of effects is within 15 minutes and may last up to 5 hours.[2]

Side effects may include sleepiness, respiratory depression, confusion, feeling high, agitation, itchiness, sweating, nausea, and constipation.[1] While there is the potential for misuse, this is less than morphine.[1] Long term use in pregnancy can result in neonatal abstinence syndrome in the baby.[3] It has agonist–antagonist effects at the µ and ĸ type opiate receptors.[1]

Butorphanol was patented in 1971 and approved for medical use in 1978.[4][1] It is available as a generic medication.[1] In the United States a 1 mg vial for injection costs about 6 USD. [5] In the United States it is a schedule IV controlled substance.[1]
