Codeine is a prescription opioid medication used to treat mild to moderate pain. It is also a key component in certain prescription cough syrups. As a narcotic analgesic, it works by binding primarily to mu-opioid receptors in the brain and spinal cord, which alters the perception of pain. Codeine is often combined with other analgesics, such as in Tylenol 3 (codeine with acetaminophen). Important safety considerations include potential drug interactions; inform your doctor if you take stimulants, antidepressants, antipsychotics, migraine medications, or drugs for Parkinson's disease, nausea, or serious infections. Codeine is contraindicated for individuals with severe asthma, breathing problems, gastrointestinal blockages, or frequent asthma attacks.
