A composition having one or more targeted opioids for administration by inhalation is provided. Targeted opioids include morphine, morphine sulfate, 6 mono acetyl morphine, morphine-6-glucuronide, morphine-6-glucuronide bromide, morphine-6-glucuronide acetate, morphine-6-glucuronide sulfate or other salt forms of these aforementioned substances. One or more targeted opioids is combined with an excipient to formulate a composition useful in the treatment of pain, anxiety or other indications. Herein, these mixtures will be referred to as "opioid compositions." Compositions are administered in a gaseous state through the use of a novel heat-activated drug inhalation device. Kits and methods of administration of the targeted opioid composition are also provided. The composition and kit are designed for the safe delivery of opioids whereby overdose and death is extremely unlikely because of the properties of the new drug and new delivery system.
