Explanation:

Opium is a set of substances obtained from the seeds of the opium poppy plant or real poppy. Opium has powerful narcotic properties and contains alkaloids, such as morphine or codeine.

The effects of opium are very strong, producing a state of analgesia and feelings of happiness, as well as general tranquility, although they can also generate vomiting, sweating, headaches, among others. In addition, it causes withdrawal syndrome in which there are effects such as depression, nausea or diarrhea.

Opium is known as one of the oldest drugs in the world. The most remote reference we have today about opium consumption comes from ancient Mesopotamia, during approximately 3400 BC. The ancient Sumerians referred to the poppy flowers from which they extracted opium as "the plant of joy."

Its cultivation was continued by the ancient Greeks, Persians and Egyptians, its use being very notable during the reign of Tutankhamun (1333-1324 BC). Already Homer in the Odyssey, was referring to the enormous healing powers of this narcotic.
