Codeine Phosphate 60mg Tablet

Codeine Phosphate 60mg Tablet is a prescription opioid medicine used to help manage certain types of pain when recommended by a qualified healthcare professional. It works by acting on the central nervous system to reduce the way the body experiences pain. The appropriate treatment depends on the patient’s condition, medical history and response to other pain relief options.

What Is Codeine Phosphate 60mg Used For?

Codeine phosphate is prescribed for pain management when other suitable painkillers may not provide enough relief. The 60mg strength requires particular care and should only be used according to a doctor’s instructions. It is not suitable for everyone, and a healthcare professional should assess whether this medicine is appropriate for your needs.

Important Information Before Use

Codeine can cause side effects, including drowsiness, nausea and constipation. It can also lead to dependence, particularly when taken for longer than prescribed. Avoid alcohol while taking codeine, and do not combine it with sleeping tablets, sedatives or other medicines that cause drowsiness unless your doctor specifically advises you to do so.

Always follow the prescribed dose and duration. Do not increase your dose or share your medicine with anyone else. Seek urgent medical attention if you experience slow or difficult breathing, extreme sleepiness or difficulty staying awake.
