  • New Zealand's Emergent Opioid Trends
    New Zealand’s emergent opioid trends - the influences and impacts: Consumer and clinician understanding of New Zealand’s changing patterns of opioid use, availability and impacts Klare Braye A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Health Sciences Department of Psychological Medicine University of Otago, Christchurch New Zealand 2014 “Among the remedies which it has pleased Almighty God to give to man to relieve his sufferings, none is so universal and so efficacious as opium”. (Sir Thomas Sydenham, 1680) ~ iii ~ Abstract This thesis explores opioid users and addiction service providers’ understandings of the changing patterns, availability and impacts of opioids and opioid use in New Zealand with a particular focus on the last two decades. Throughout history, the availability of substances of abuse have waxed and waned. Their emergence and availability is influenced by social, legislative and political circumstances. Extensive literature exists related to the use of opioids such as morphine and methadone in New Zealand, and heroin overseas. However, few studies have examined the emerging trends of opioids that are often used as adjunctively to these substances; examples of which in recent years include poppy seed tea (PST), over-the- counter codeine-containing analgesics and most recently some prescribed pain medications. Information regarding the use, availability and impacts of these adjunct opioids from the consumers who use them, and the clinicians who work with these consumers could usefully inform service provision and public policy. This qualitative study, adopting a Husserlian phenomenological philosophy was used, to gain an understanding of the use, access to and implications of these emergent opioid trends.

  • Opiate Chemistry and Metabolism
    OPIATE CHEMISTRY AND METABOLISM Opiates are any chemicals derived from morphine and codeine, and morphine and codeine themselves. They all have the generalised structure shown below, where X represents either -H, -CH3 or -COCH3. XO O NCH3 XO These chemicals are all pain killers and they all produce drowsiness. Some also produce feelings of euphoria, and they are all to some extent dependence-inducing. For these reasons they are used both medically and illicitly. To determine whether or not one of these drugs has been taken it is important to understand their respective metabolic pathways (the chain of reactions that they undergo in the body) to know which chemicals are indicative of the use of any opiate and which are indicative of the use of an illicit opiate such as heroin. Once this is known then urine samples can be analysed for these chemicals and a positive identification of the starting drug made. Of additional interest to the police is the homebake production of morphine. In New Zealand this is commonly done by a method that results in high 3-monoacetyl morphine levels, whereas South-East Asian laboratories commonly produce heroin with high 6- monoacetyl morphine levels. Thus an analysis of the homebake morphine being used gives information as to where the drug originated. INTRODUCTION The term “opiates” is used for substances, such as morphine and codeine, which are derived from opium, as well as their chemical derivatives. The best known opiates are heroin, morphine and codeine, the structures of which are given in Figure 1. They are all potent narcotic analgesics, i.e.
