CODEINUM PHOSPHORICUM
Codeine phosphate tablets

How does it work?

Codeine belongs to a group of medicines called opioids. Opioids mimic the effects of naturally occurring pain reducing chemicals (endorphins). They combine with the opioid receptors in the brain and block the transmission of pain signals. Therefore, even though the cause of the pain may remain, less pain is actually felt.

Codeine is also sometimes used to treat diarrhoea because of it's constipating side effect, however this is not a recommended use.

Codeine is found in low doses in some cough medicines (see codeine phosphate, linctus).
