Summary
Phenomorphan is a morphinan opioid — the N-phenethyl analogue of levorphanol — and one of the more potent morphinans known: roughly ten times levorphanol, on the order of 60-80 times morphine. It was never marketed and is Schedule I. No human dosing data exists; at this potency a morphine-scale dose is a lethal dose, and no ladder is published here deliberately.

- Effect keyword matching from PsychonautWiki catalog
- No reports exist for this substance. Its effect list is the one shared by 12 other substances of the same class, so the scores below describe the class, not this compound.
- Weighted by importance: core (×3), major (×2), minor (×1)
Strong euphoria with moderate itching/nausea, mild sedation
Tolerance
No tolerance chart. Our decay curves for opioids were estimates, and a curve can make tolerance look longer-lasting than it is, which is the dangerous direction.
Opioid tolerance drops fast when you stop, and even a few days off can be enough, so a dose that used to be normal can now stop your breathing. Overdose deaths rise sharply after prison, detox or leaving treatment, and tolerance also falls during a hospital stay. After any break, start with a much smaller amount, try a test dose first, don't use alone, and keep naloxone within reach. Alcohol, benzodiazepines, gabapentinoids and other sedatives make an opioid overdose much more likely.
