opiated
Under sedative influence
Opiated describes something containing or treated with opium or opiates: opiated cough syrup, opiated patent medicines.
The term appears most often in historical contexts, when opium derivatives were common in over-the-counter remedies.
Figuratively, opiated suggests something that dulls the senses or induces a dreamy stupor: the opiated masses, an opiated calm.
