What are Codeine Sulphate Tablets USP?

Codeine sulphate tablets USP are oral tablets that contain codeine, a narcotic analgesic that belongs to the class of opioids. Codeine is derived from the opium poppy plant and works by binding to opioid receptors in the brain and spinal cord, blocking the transmission of pain signals. Codeine sulphate tablets USP are used to treat mild to moderate pain, such as headache, toothache, muscle ache, menstrual cramps, etc. Codeine sulphate tablets USP are also used to relieve cough and diarrhoea.

Codeine sulphate tablets USP are available in different strengths, ranging from 15 to 60 mg. The dosage and duration of treatment depend on the severity of the condition, the patient’s age, weight, medical history, and response to the medication. Codeine sulphate tablets USP are usually taken every 4 to 6 hours as needed, with or without food. Codeine sulphate tablets USP should not be taken more than the prescribed amount or for longer than the recommended period, as this can lead to addiction, overdose, or withdrawal symptoms.

How to Use Codeine Sulphate Tablets USP?

Codeine sulphate tablets USP are easy to use, but you should follow a few simple steps to ensure the best results and bypass complications. Here are the steps to use codeine sulphate tablets USP:

Read the label and the leaflet carefully before taking the medication. Ensure you understand the medication’s dosage, frequency, duration, and warnings.

Take the medicine exactly as specified by your doctor. Do not consume more or less than the recommended amount or longer or shorter than the advised period.

Consume the tablet complete with a glass of water. Don’t break, crush, or chew the tablet, as this may affect the release and absorption of the drug.

You can take the tablet with or without food, but avoid taking it on an empty stomach, which may cause nausea or irritation.

If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you recognise it unless it is almost time for your next dose. In that case, ignore the missed dose and continue your regular schedule. Do not take 2 doses at once to make up for the missed one, as this may increase the risk of side effects or overdose.

If you take too much of the medication, or if you suspect an overdose, seek emergency medical help immediately. Signs of overdose may include severe drowsiness, slow or shallow breathing, pinpoint pupils, cold or clammy skin, weak pulse, low blood pressure, or coma.

Do not stop taking the medication abruptly, as this may cause withdrawal symptoms, such as restlessness, anxiety, insomnia, sweating, shaking, muscle pain, nausea, vomiting, or diarrhoea. If you want to stop or reduce the medication, consult your doctor and follow their instructions on how to taper off the drug gradually and safely.

What are the side effects of Codeine Sulphate Tablets USP?

Codeine sulphate tablets USP are generally well-tolerated, but they may cause some side effects in some people, such as:

Drowsiness, dizziness, lightheadedness, sedation, or impaired coordination

Nausea, vomiting, constipation, or stomach pain

Dry mouth, sweating, or itching

Headache, mood changes, or confusion

Difficulty urinating or decreased sexual ability

Respiratory depression, or slow or shallow breathing

Allergic reactions, such as rash, hives, swelling, or difficulty breathing

These side effects are usually mild and temporary, and they can be reduced by taking the medication as directed, drinking plenty of fluids, eating high-fibre foods, and avoiding alcohol and other drugs. However, if any of these side effects persist or worsen, or if you experience any severe or unusual symptoms, such as chest pain, irregular heartbeat, seizures, hallucinations, or loss of consciousness, you should seek medical attention immediately.

What are the precautions for Codeine Sulphate Tablets USP?

Codeine sulphate tablets USP are not suitable for everyone, and they should be taken with caution by certain people, such as:

People who have a history of respiratory problems, such as asthma, COPD, or sleep apnea.

People who have a history of liver or kidney problems or other medical conditions that may affect the metabolism or excretion of the drug.

People who are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, as the drug may harm the unborn or nursing baby.

People who are taking other medications, especially those that may interact with codeine, such as antidepressants, antihistamines, anticonvulsants, antipsychotics, muscle relaxants, sedatives, or other opioids.

People who are driving, operating machinery, or performing any tasks that require alertness, as the drug may impair their ability or judgment.

Before taking codeine sulphate tablets USP, please consult your doctor and inform them about your medical history, allergies, current medications, and any other relevant information. You should follow your doctor’s instructions carefully and only change the dose or stop the treatment with their approval.

What are the Advantages of Codeine Sulphate Tablets USP over Other Painkillers?

Codeine sulphate tablets USP have some advantages over other painkillers, such as:

They are more effective and potent than other non-opioid analgesics, such as paracetamol, ibuprofen, or aspirin, especially for moderate to severe pain.

They have fewer side effects and interactions than other opioid analgesics, such as morphine, oxycodone, or fentanyl, especially for respiratory depression, constipation, or addiction.

They have a longer duration of action than other opioid analgesics, such as tramadol, hydrocodone, or codeine phosphate, which means they require less frequent dosing and provide more consistent pain relief.

They have a lower risk of abuse and dependence than other opioid analgesics, such as heroin, methadone, or buprenorphine, which means they are less likely to cause addiction, overdose, or withdrawal symptoms.
