  1. An Insight Into Codeine and Hydrocodone

  2. The narcotic syrup, codeine is a blend of the substance homatropine and hydrocodone. Homatropine is infused into the formulation to prevent the dangerous effect of a drug overdose of hydrocodone. Both hydrocodone and codeine are the prescription drugs that are included in the category of opioids.

  3. What is Codeine? • Codeine is the opioid, which is prescribed for treating cough and mild pain but like any other prescription narcotics, it is low in strength. For increasing its efficacy it is combined with other substances such as acetaminophen. Codeine gets converted back into morphine as soon as it reaches the user’s brain, where it binds to the ‘opioid’ receptors and reduces central nervous system’s activity. There is a risk of physical dependence, overdose, and addiction of codeine if taken in uncontrolled dose.

  4. What is Hydrocodone? • Hydrocodone is an opioid which is used for treating pain when used in conjunction with acetaminophen. Narcotic syrups codeine and hydrocodone are potent painkillers. Hydrocodone is potent among the prescription painkillers and it gets attached to the brain’s opioid receptors. It plays a role in slowing down the activity of the central nervous system to a point where the respiration can stop.

  5. Hydrocodone Vs Codeine • Narcotic syrups codeine and hydrocodone stimulate the ‘opioid’ receptor sites. They are used for treating pain and suppressing the cough reflex. Codeine and hydrocodone have different chemical structures. In some people, the effect of codeine cannot be felt if they lack a specific liver enzyme but this does not happen with hydrocodone.
