Alfentanil

A potent, short-acting synthetic opioid analgesic, discovered in Belgium in 1976 and used in surgical anaesthesia; compared with its relative fentanyl, its effect lasts about a third as long. This family brings together pharmacopoeial impurities, labelled standards and other impurities.

Did you know?It acts about four times faster than fentanyl: at physiological pH almost all of its molecules carry no charge, which favours its rapid onset of action.
