Here is one of a number of drugs on this site that offers a good description of what the drug is and how it works.
http://www.druglib.com/druginfo/numorphan/
From that page
"NUMORPHAN (oxymorphone hydrochloride, USP), a semi-synthetic opioid substitute for morphine, is a potent analgesic. NUMORPHAN Suppository is indicated for the relief of moderate to severe pain."
It means it is a very potent opium based pain reliever.
