Codeine is an opioid analgesic. It is much less potent as an analgesic than morphine and has relatively mild sedative effects. Codeine or its salts, especially the phosphate, are given orally in the form of linctus for the relief of cough, and as tablets for the relief of mild to moderate pain, often with a non-opioid analgesic such as paracetamol.
