Dimefadane is an analgesic agent with about the same activity as codeine, but without any of the GI side effects. Although it does not adhere to the classical morphine rule (structure includes a tertiary amine, phenyl ring and quaternary carbon), it is not known if this is opioidergic. It has structure activity relationships that can be compared to tametraline. Klaus Bøgesø used dimefadane as the harbinger to Indatraline.
