Codeine is used to treat mild to moderate pain. It belongs to the class of drugs known as narcotic analgesics (pain medicines). This medication relieves pain by acting on the central nervous system (CNS).
When Codeine Market is used for an extended period of time, it can become habit-forming, causing mental or physical dependence. People who are in chronic pain, on the other hand, should not let the fear of addiction prevent them from using narcotics to relieve their symptoms. When narcotics are used for this purpose, mental dependence (addiction) is unlikely. If treatment is abruptly stopped, physical dependence may result in withdrawal symptoms. However, severe withdrawal symptoms can usually be avoided by gradually reducing the dose over time before discontinuing treatment completely.
