Etomethazene (5-methyldesnitroetonitazene) is a benzimidazole derivative with opioid effects which has been sold as a designer drug over the internet since early 2022. It is an analogue of etonitazene where the nitro (NO2) group has been replaced by a methyl (CH3) group. While formal studies into its pharmacology have yet to be carried out, it showed far less potency than etonitazene itself. Etomethazene has a potency around 20 times than morphine with a relatively short duration about 120 min. [1][2]
