Heroin (diacetylmorphine or morphine diacetate, also known as diamorphine (BAN, INN) and commonly known by its street names of H, smack, boy,
horse, brown, black, tar, and others) is an opioid analgesic originally synthesized by C.R. Alder Wright in 1874 by adding two acetyl groups to the molecule morphine, which is found naturally in the opium poppy. It is the 3,6-diacetyl ester of morphine. Administered intravenously by injection heroin is 2 to 4 times more potent than morphine and it is faster in its onset of action.

Ketamine is also used for postoperative pain management. Low doses of ketamine reduces morphine use and nausea and vomiting after surgery
Which is ironic because Horses can not vomit.
