Codeine 60mg is an opiate pain medication that’s sometimes referred to as a narcotic.
Its active ingredient is found in many different medications that treat pain, cough, and diarrhea.
Brand names of drugs containing codeine for pain relief include Tylenol #3, Tylenol #4, Soma Compound with Codeine, Fiorinal with Codeine, Fioricet with Codeine, and Capital and Codeine.
Codeine is available in pill and syrup form.
The drug works by blocking responses to pain, suppressing your cough reflex, and causing drowsiness.
Like all drugs related to or derived from opium, codeine is a controlled substance.
The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) classifies codeine as a Schedule II or III controlled substance.
However, low doses of codeine are still sold over-the-counter (OTC) in some states.
Phenergan with codeine, manufactured by Ani Pharmaceuticals, may have been the first codeine-containing product approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1952.
CODEINE AND YOUR GENES
Some people may find that codeine doesn’t relieve their pain.
That’s because the body must first convert codeine into morphine, and some people lack the gene responsible for that conversion.
Also, not everyone’s liver processes codeine at the same rate.
Therefore, people whose bodies break down codeine quickly may need higher doses than usual or more frequent doses to relieve their pain.
And people who process codeine slowly might need lower doses of codeine than usual.
CODEINE WARNINGS
You shouldn’t take codeine if you’re allergic to it (or to any other ingredients in the drug) or have trouble breathing.
If you experience any of the following after starting codeine, talk to your doctor, as you may be allergic to the drug:
- Itching
- Rash
- Hives
Before taking codeine, tell you doctor if you have:
- Kidney or liver problems
- Seizures
- Problems with your stomach or intestines, including a blockage in your intestinal tract and inflammatory bowel disease
- Addison’s disease
- An enlarged prostate
- Had a recent head injury
CODEINE BLACK-BOX WARNING
The FDA requires codeine products to carry a black-box warning because some children who process codeine quickly have had trouble breathing or stopped breathing and died when given codeine after surgery to remove their tonsils and adenoids.
Parents of children and elderly people should talk to their doctors before they begin taking any medication that contains codeine.
CODEINE ‘HIGH’ AND ADDICTION
Numerous online and anecdotal reports have suggested that some people abuse codeine for a narcotic-like “high.”
In addition to being addictive or habit-forming, codeine abuse can result in:
- Nausea or vomiting
- Euphoria
- Memory loss
- Lack of coordination
- Fatigue
Take codeine only as directed by your doctor, and keep this and all other drugs away from children, teenagers, and anyone for whom the drug has not been prescribed.
CODEINE WITHDRAWAL
People who’ve taken codeine for a long time and then stop may experience the following withdrawal symptoms:
Once you’ve been off Codeine 60mg for a while, you might have diarrhea, feel nauseated, throw up, have stomach pain, and have goose pimples.
PREGNANCY AND CODEINE
Some animal studies show codeine may be harmful to a developing fetus.
Adequate study in humans has not been done, so Codeine 60mgmay not be safe for pregnant women to take.
Codeine passes into breast milk and can make it difficult for a baby to breathe, so it shouldn’t be taken by mothers who breastfeed.
Tell your doctor if you’re pregnant, might become pregnant, or are breastfeeding before taking codeine or any medication that contains codeine.
