Overview
Codeine is an opioid medication used for the short-term relief of mild to moderate pain and as a cough suppressant. It functions as a prodrug, being converted into morphine in the body, which acts as a selective agonist of the μ-opioid receptor (MOR). Codeine is available in various forms, including tablets and syrups, often combined with other medications like acetaminophen or chlorpheniramine.
