No, Soma is a muscle relaxant, generic name carisoprodol. Soma has a potentiating effect when combined with opioids, so that it is occassionally used in conjuction for pain control. Carisoprodol is considered to be highly habituating. Actual true opiates are mostly gone from the pharmacy, having been replaced by opioids -- synthetic opiates that tend to be easier to produce, and have fewer allergic reactions.
