In the United States, opiates have abuse and addiction potential, and are, thus, scheduled (regulated) substances.

Therefore, unless the opiate is a Schedule 1 substance (such as heroin), it is legal to use as long as it is used as directed, and is prescribed to you, specifically, by a physician or other authorized medical professional.

What is the classification of opiates?

Opiates are their own class of drugs. If you are talking about what class of controlled substances opiates are in, they are members of three classes. Illegal opiates like heroin and many other illegal drugs are DEA Schedule I drugs. No Schedule I drug is legal in the US. The stronger opiates like morphine, fentanyl, oxycodone, hydromorphone (Dilaudid), oxymorphone (Opana), and methadone are Schedule II controlled substances. The weaker opiates such as codeine, dihydrocodeine, and hydrocodone (Vicoden) are Schedule III drugs, although the DEA is currently considering moving hydrocodone into Schedule II.
