- Benzhydrocodone (INN) (contracted from benzoate-hydrocodone) is an opioid prodrug of the morphinan class. Its chemical structure consists of hydrocodone coupled with benzoic acid. Benzhydrocodone itself is inactive and acts as a prodrug to hydrocodone upon cleavage of the benzoate portion of the molecule. It is designed to be an opioid analgesic with a low chance of recreational use. Created by Kempharm, Inc., a biopharmaceutical company in Coralville, Iowa, President and CEO, Travis Mickle, believes the molecular-based approach to abuse deterrent may be more effective than many formulation-based approaches. When approved, Apadaz received a labeling that highlighted all relevant aspects of the drug, including the lower abuse profile compared to traditional hydrocodone-acetaminophen. The labeling showed several items supporting a lower abuse profile than traditional hydrocodone-acetaminophen; namely, a lower Drug Liking in the first two hours after intranasal abuse (snorting), and the conversion of benzhydrocodone to hydrocodone in vitro being a "difficult process" -- with benzhydrocodone being a more difficult drug to abuse according to FDA Apadaz adcom documents.
