What Is PPX (Propoxyphene)?
Propoxyphene (PPX) is a synthetic opioid analgesic that was previously prescribed for mild to moderate pain and sold under brand names such as Darvon® and Darvocet®. Due to serious safety concerns—including cardiac toxicity, overdose risk, and dependence—it was removed from the U.S. market in 2010. Despite this, PPX testing remains relevant for compliance monitoring, forensic screening, and treatment programs.
