According to how it works: (quote) Acts as agonist at specific opioid receptors in the CNS to produce analgesia, euphoria, sedation; the receptors mediating these effects are thought to be the same as those mediating the effects of endogenous opioids (enkephalins, endorphins).(end).
It is agonist meaning that it helps the receptors in the brain and spinal cord to be more open to the actions of sedation and reduces the feeling of pain. All-in-all, it acts just like opium (opiate).
