Best Answer

Opium is a drug - one of the World's oldest, longest, and most widely used drugs. Also, many other drugs are derived from opium, such as morphine, heroin, and all other opiates. Opioids - meaning "opiate-shaped" or "opiate-like" - are synthetic drugs, modeled on the types of molecules found in opium.
