Etoetonitazene is a benzimidazole derivative with opioid effects, first developed in the 1950s as part of the research that led to better-known compounds such as etonitazene. It is an analogue of etonitazene where the ethoxy group has been extended to ethoxyethoxy. It is less potent than etonitazene itself, but is still a potent opioid agonist with around 50x the potency of morphine, and has been sold as a designer drug since around 2022.[1][2]
