What drugs are like heroin?

Heroin is not a category of drugs, but a specific drug The name "Heroin" actually originated as a brand name for diacetylmorphine (also known as diamorphine), an opiate analgesic chemically derived from morphine. The drug, marketed as "Heroin", was used widely enough in the late 19th and early 20th centuries that the brand name eventually passed into common usage as the name for all diacetlymorphine manufactured, such as tissues are often referred to as Kleenex regardless of band Other opiates are morphine, hydrocodone(Vicodin), oxycodone(OxyContin or Percocet), fentanly, hydromorhone, and methadone
