Business Description

Codeine is a prescription medication that belongs to the class of drugs known as opioids. It is commonly used as a pain reliever and cough suppressant. Codeine works by binding to opioid receptors in the brain and spinal cord, which can reduce the perception of pain and suppress the urge to cough.

In addition to its pain-relieving and cough-suppressing effects, codeine also has the potential for side effects and risks. Some common side effects of codeine may include drowsiness, constipation, nausea, vomiting, and dizziness. It can also cause respiratory depression, where breathing becomes slow and shallow, particularly when taken in higher doses or when combined with other substances that depress the central nervous system, such as alcohol.
