Ketobemidone, sold under the brand name Ketogan among others, is a powerful synthetic opioid painkiller. Its effectiveness against pain is in the same range as morphine, and it also has some NMDA-antagonist properties imparted, in part, by its metabolite norketobemidone.[2] This may make it useful for some types of pain that do not respond well to other opioids.[2] It is marketed in Denmark, Iceland, Norway and Sweden and is used for severe pain.[3]
