 BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention This invention is in the field of combinations of drugs for medicinal purposes, in particular. analgetic compositions for the treatment of pain.  
 2. Description of the Prior Art A. l -N-Cyclopropylmethyl-7,8-dihydrol 4-hydroxynormorphinone (l) having the formula is described in US. Pat. No. 3,332,950, issued July 25. 1967.  
  B. H. BLumberg, H. B. Dayton, and P. S. Wolf. Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology, l0, 1967) disclose compound I as having limited effectivenss as an analgesic but potent narcotic antagonistic activity, about 39 times more potent than nalorphine.  
  C. US. Pat. No. 3,254,088 which issued May 31, I966, describes the preparation of naloxone and its activity as a narcotic antagonist.  
  D. US. Pat. No. 3,493,657 which issued Feb. 3. 1970, describes the combination of morphine and naloxone as a composition for parenteral use which has a strong analgetic, as well as antagonistic effect, without the occurrence of undesired or dangerous side effects.  
  E. A New York Times article appearing in a July 14, 1970 issue describes the oral administration of naloxone to narcotic addicts as a method of treatment. The oral administration of naloxone (in high doses) makes it impossible for the addict to experience a high no matter how much heroin he uses.  
  F. The publication of the Committee on Problems of Drug Dependence, Addendum 1, p. 2 (1970) reports the compound UM 792 (EN 1639, Compound I) to precipitate Abstinence in nonwithdrawn monkeys. It is about 6 to 13 times more potent than nalorphine. It has a long duration of action, comparable to that of cyclazocine.  
  Applicants are of the opinion that the prior art neither teaches nor suggests the compositions of the instant invention, said compositions being orally active analgetic agents producing neither analgesia, euphoria or physical dependence upon parenteral administration.  
  Drug abuse has almost become a way of life to a rapidly growing segment of the world population, especially here in the United States. It has become the vogue of many of the young generation to experiment with any type of drug that will produce an emotional,  
 psychological, euphoric, depressive or generally psychodelic experience.  
  Those drugs most commonly employed for such illicit purposes include the barbiturates, lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD), mescaline, marijuana (tetrahydrocannabinol), strong analgetics (heroin, codeine, morphine, meperidine, cocaine, propoxyphene [Darvon], methadone, dihydrocodeinone, pentazocine, and the like), the central nervous system stimulants (the amphetamines and the like) and some of the major and minor tranquilizers (the promazines, meprobamate, the diazepines, and the like). Most of these compounds are commonly used in medicine for the legitimate treatment of various conditions and therefore have a limited availability in our society. While these agents are a necessary part of modern medicine, it would be highly desirable (l) to produce new drugs that do not possess drug abuse potential or (2) to denature the old agents to prevent their illicit use. The pharamceutical industry has been striving to achieve the first goal for many years but most regrettably has only achieved very moderate success. lf one focuses on the strong analgetics, it becomes apparent that much effort and money has been expended to produce chemicals possessing good analgetic activity but little or no addictive liability. While good progress has been made as evidenced. for example. by the development of propoxyphene as a replacement for morphine or meperidine, it is unfortunate that these compounds are still reported in the medical literature to be addictive and/or euphoric and subjected to abuse by parenteral administration. Furthermore, some of these agents have undesirable side effects. i.e., bad hallucinations. etc.  
  It is commonly known to the narcotic enforcement agencies and others in the medical trades that a substantially large amount of the strong analgetics destined for legitimate medicinal use become diverted by dishonest or careless handling. In most instances these compounds are obtained by the addict or potential addict by theft or casual prescribing practice by the physician.  
  It is known from experience that the true narcotic addict must feed his habit by the parenteral route (mainlining) to obtain the maximum euphoric effect. The potential addict or thrill-seeker will also experiment in the same manner. Unfortunately, a substantial amount of the legitimate strong analgetics formulated in oral dosage form are diverted to parenteral use and abuse. Since the oral dosage forms of these drugs diverted from legitimate channels must be parenterally usable to produce the desired euphoria, it follows that if these oral dosage forms are in some way rendered inactive or unpleasant for parenteral use the addict or potential addict will be cut off from this particular supply of euphoretic drugs.  
  l-N-Cyclopropylmethyl-7 ,8-dihydrol 4-hydroxynormorphinone (compound I, EN-l639) is described in the literature as being a potent morphine (narcotic) antagonist about 39 times as potent as nalorphine upon parenteral administration. As such, the product is useful for the treatment of narcotic overdosage or for the detection of addiction. However, while compound I is extremely potent parenterally (a parenteral dose of 0.05 to l.25 mg. will produce narcotic withdrawal symptoms in the addict or have a narcotic reversal effect in an overdose situation), the compound must be administered in quantities much greater than the parenter-til dose to obtain the same effect orally. The contemporaneous parenteral administration of equivalent therapeutic doses of compound I and a euphoretic narcotic or narcotic-like analgetic will negate the analgetic and euphoretic effect of the analgetic in the normal individual and the euphoric and/or maintenance effect of the analgetic in the addict.  
  Many interchangeable terms are commonly used to describe the psychic or physical dependence of people upon drugs. The term addiction is most commonly used when talking about the strong analgetics. The strong analgetics, in contrast to the weaker agents such as aspirin, acetaminophen, and the like, are employed in the relief of more severe pain. They usually produce a euphoric effect on parenteral administration.  
  Addiction can develop to the barbiturates and strong analgetic agents, in the sense of the term addiction as defined by the Committee on Problems of Drug Dependence of The National Research Council, formerly known as the Drug Addiction Committee of The National Research Council, namely, a state of periodic or chronic intoxication, detrimental to the individual and to society, produced by the repeated administration of a drug, its characteristics are a compulsion to take the drug and to increase the dose, with the development of psychic and sometimes physical dependence on the effects of the drug, so that the development of means to continue the administration of the drug becomes an important motive in the addicts existence.  
  Addiction to the strong narcotic or narcotic-like analgetics often occurs by the legitimate chronic parenteral administration of these agents in the alleviation of deep pain. More commonly, however, addiction to these agents occurs when the psychologically unbalanced or thrill-seeking individual looking for an escape from the realities of life finds his escape in the euphoria produced by the parenteral administration of strong analgetics. Euphoria is generally defined as a feeling of well-being. Euphoria can be produced in many ways, eg. an exhilarating experience, alcohol, stimulants, depressants, narcotics, etc. For the purpose of this dis closure, euphoria&#34; is defined as an abnormal state of well-being produced by the parenteral administration of strong analgetic agents. The terms euphoretic analgetics and strong analgetics, often called narcotic or narcotic-like analgetics, are also defined herein as including those chemical agents which upon parenteral administration are capable of maintaining or partially maintaining a known addict to heroin or the like without substantial withdrawal symptoms. For the purpose of this disclosure, a strong analgetic&#34; is also defined herein as any analgetic agent whose analgetic, euphoric or dependence producing actions are negated by the parenteral administration of compound I or a salt thereof.  
 SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It was an object of this invention to develop a potent, orally effective, but parenterally inactive analgetic composition that would have essentially no drug abuse potential. The object of the invention was achieved by the formulation of a composition comprising an orally inactive dose of compound I and an orally active strong, i.e., narcotic or narcotic-like, analgetic agent in oral dosage form which, when administered parenterally, had no drug abuse potential.  
  lt is our invention to combine a parenterally effective but orally ineffective dose of compound I with an oral analgetic dose of an orally effective strong analgetic without interfering with the analgetic effect of the analgetic upon oral administration. At the same time, however, if any of the oral dosage form should be diverted into the hands of the addict or potential addict, the composition when injected parenterally would not produce any euphoria and in an addict would, in fact, actually cause some withdrawal symptoms.  
  Examples of some representative orally active strong analgetics and their preferred oral dosage ranges are: meperidine (50-250 mg), oxymorphone (-25 mg), alphaprodine (SO-250 mg), anileridine (25-150 mg), dextromoramide (5-25 mg), dextropropoxyphene (32-150 mg), methadone (5-25 mg), metopon (3-15 mg), levorphanol (2-10 mg), phenazocine (2-10 mg), ethoheptazine 100-500 mg), propiram (SO-500 mg), profadol (-250 mg), phenampromide (50-250 mg), thiambutene (20-150 mg), pentazocine (20-200 mg), pholcodeine (-250 mg), codeine 15-150 mg), oxycodone (5-50 mg), dihydrocodeinone (5-100 mg), hydromorphone (10-100 mg), fentanyl (0.5- 10 mg), 3-trans-dimethylamino-4- phenyl-4-trans-carbethoxy-A-cyclohexene (-250 mg), 3-dimethylamino-0-( 4-methoxyphenylcarbamoyl)-propiophenone oxime (25-150 mg), (-)/3-2- hydroxy-2,9-dimethyl-5-phenyl-6,7-benzomorphan (10-150 mg), ()2&#39;-hydroxy-2-(3 -methyl-2-butenyl)- 9-methyl-S-phenyl-6,7-benzomorphan (20-300 mg), pirinitramide (l0-l50 mg), (-)a-5,9-diethyl-2&#39;- hydroxy-2-methyl-6,7-benzomorphan (50-250 mg), ethyl l-(Z-dimethylaminoethyl)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-3- methyl-4-oxo-6phenylindole-2-carboxylate (50- l5&#39;0 mg), l-benzoylmethyl-2,3-dimethyl-3-(m-hydroxyphenyl)-piperidine (50-500 mg), N-allyl-7a-( I-(R)- hydroxy-l-methylbutyl)-6,l4-endoethenotetrahydronororipavine (50-250 mg), (-)2&#39;- hydroxy-Z-methyl-6,7-benzomorphan (50-250 mg), noracylmethadol (10-150 mg), a-dl-methadol (5-25 mg), ,B-dl-methadol (35-250 mg), a-l-methadol (2-15 mg), fi-dl-acetylmethadol (1-10 mg), {1-1- acetylmethadol (l-lO mg.) and B-l-acetylmethadol (2-25 mg).  
  When the term l-N-cyclopropylmethyl-7,8-dihydrol4-hydroxynormorphinone (compound I) or the name of a strong analgetic agent is used herein, it is to be understood that any and all the pharmaceutically acceptable nontoxic salts thereof are also an integral part of this invention. The salts of these agents would include amongst others, the hydrochlorides, sulfates, bisulfates,  
 &#39; tartrates, nitrates, citrates, bitartrates, phosphates, ma-  
 lates, maleates, hydrobromides, hydroiodides, fumarates, succinates, and the like.  
  The compositions of the present invention can be formulated into any of the known pharmaceutical forms for oral administration. As such the term oral dosage form includes solid compositions for oral administration in unit dosage form such as tablets, capsules, granules, powders, cachets or the like. Bulk powders of fixed composition for subdivision into therapeutic quantities, solutions, emulsions or suspensions of the composition are also included in the definition.  
  The compositions of the instant invention can also contain other active ingredients. These include amongst others for example, aspirin, phenacetin, caffeine, acetaminophen, antihistamines homatropine methylbromide, phenyltoloxamine citrate. barbituates, or the like. or multiple combinations thereof. Also included within the scope of the present invention are those compositions comprising compound I in combination with those antitussive preparations which contain narcotic or narcotic-like cough suppressants such as codeine, dihydrocodeinone, pholcodeine, and the like. Other products comprising a narcotic or narcoticlike composition for use as an antispasmotic in the gas tro-intestinal tract, such as Camphorated Opium Tincture, U.S.P., Opium Tincture, U.S.P., Opium Extract. N.F., and the like can also be denatured with compound l and are considered an integral part of this in vention.  
  One especially valued composition of the present invention is the orally active combination of methadone and compound I. This is particularly so because of the recently acknowledged and accepted method of treating narcotic addicts with methadone. The regimen of treatment involves the oral dosing of the addict one or more times a day with a maintenance dose of metha done adequate to prevent narcotic craving. One major disadvantage of the program is the necessity of the addict to report to a treatment center one or more times a day to receive his methadone. The oral methadone must be administered in the presence ofa health officer to prevent its diversion into illicit channels where it can be abused parenterally so as to obtain a euphoric effect. However, this would not be so if the composition of the instant invention were to be employed. As explained above, the compound l-methadone composition would be orally active but could not be diverted to parenteral use because of the presence of the narcotic antagonist, compound I. lt would therefore be possible to supply an addict with several days supply of his maintenance dose of methadone without fear of the composition being used for other than that intended.  
  A preferred embodiment of the present invention is an orally effective, analgetic composition which, upon parenteral administration, does not produce analgesia, euphoria or physical dependence, said composition comprising an orally ineffective but parenterally effective dose of compound I and an orally active, strong analgetic in oral dosage form.
