Claims2
A pharmaceutical composition in unit dosage form containing 2 to 300 mg. of a compound of the formulae ##SPC20##
- and ##SPC21##
- wherein R is lower alkyl having 1 to 5 carbons, R.sub.1 is hydrogen or lower alkyl having 1 to 5 carbons, R.sub.2 is lower alkyl and R.sub.3 is alkyl having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, a phenyl-lower alkyl in which the phenyl is unsubstituted or is substituted with a lower-alkyl, lower-alkoxy, halo, nitro or lower-alkylmercapto group, or a cycloalkyl-lower alkyl group in which the cycloalkyl contains 3 to 8 carbons in the ring, and
The method of inducing analgesia in an animal which comprises administering to the animal a safe but effective amount of 1,2-dihydro-1,4,4-trimethyl-9-hydroxy-7-(3-methyl-2-octyl)-4H-thieno-[2,3- c][1] benzopyran or 1,2-dihydro-2,4,4-trimethyl-9-hydroxy-7-(3-methyl-2-octyl)-4H-thieno-[2,3- c][1] benzopyran to effect analgesia in the animal.
