| ==Regarding references to codeine legality in Denmark== | |||
| Noticed that the article says the reference is missing so went digging around, but the only openly available and valid reference articles about "Kodimagnyl" are all in Danish, with no English counterparts. The thing is that this is a purely Danish product, produced here and only sold here, and thus doesn't have available documentation in other languages. As such, editing to add the references is problematic, and I'm far from an expert on neither pharmacology or chemistry, so would rather leave it up to someone who is. | |||
| As to the actual drug, "Kodimagnyl" is the brand name, and it contains 150 mg acetalic (sp?) acid ASA, 9.6 mg codeine, and 150 mg magnesium oxide. | |||
| As for relevant references: | |||
| *From the National Health Department's section for control with legal drugs: (these are Word documents, in Danish - the pharmacological legal documentation for the products as I understand it). | |||
| *From netdoktor.dk (most trustworthy medical site we have, as it's independent and run by doctors): (the common-man's description of the drug). | |||
| This remains the only codeine based OTC product available in Denmark. As of a legal change a couple years ago, no painkiller (no matter what it is) may be sold in amounts greater than 20 pills without prescription (although I've seen pharmacists willingly greater amounts, but I'm unsure if that's legal or not). --] (]) 00:46, 26 July 2016 (UTC) | |||
| ==Please fix this tiny mistake, someone== | |||
| At the bottom of the page, there are two "Opioidergics" templates, one on top and one at the bottom (with the others in-between), so probably it was forgotten there by someone who edited it, I don't edit pages so often to do it smoothly and more of can't be bothered to, so just putting it out there - look at the bottom of the page and you'll see it there - twice.

| Also this mistake. "Evidence does not support its use for cough suppression" ] (]) 17:26, 16 March 2016 (UTC) | |||
| == syrup == | |||
| ''When used to relieve dry coughs, codeine is used in doses ranging from 5-15 mg and is usually mixed as a syrup with other drugs such as promethazine which is an antihistamine/antipsychotic with strong sedative activity (some formulations come with different types of antihistamines), guaifenesin which is an expectorant, and other drugs.'' | |||
| :In Belgium, seven syrups containing codeine are approved for sale in pharmacies, none of them contain any other active ingredient: BROMOPHAR (Qualiphar),BRONCHODINE (Pharmacobel),BRONCHOSEDAL CODEINE (Johnson & Johnson Consumer), BRONCHO-PECTORALIS CODEINE (Medgenix), GLOTTYL (Meda Pharma), TOULARYNX (Qualiphar),TOUX-SAN CODEINE (Nycomed) (source: official list) | |||
| :So in which countries apart from the US are those mixtures sold, or even legal? ] (]) 23:17, 28 June 2012 (UTC) | |||
| ::In Denmark we have AFAIK only one cough syrup that contains codeine (only it's considered codeine in liquid form and is primarily sold as a painkiller, but it contains ethanol like most our efficient cough syrups do). Ref: (article is in Danish, but from the most trustworthy medicinal website we have). It's however typically only prescribed for severe and painful cough, or to use the codeine's effect to suppress the cough (it works for some people I guess), and only rarely so. Typically efficient cough syrups here, both OTC and prescription, contain ephedrine instead for the pain relief. From personal experience, the codeine based cough syrup is inefficient while the ephedrine works almost instantly and has fewer side effects (whether or not that's relevant for the article I cannot say). --] (]) 00:10, 26 July 2016 (UTC) | |||
| == Non-existent reference == | |||
| == Prescription drug driving impairment and legal penalties. == | |||
| As far as I can tell, "The December 2008 issue of The Bulletin of the National Codeine OTC Lobby (Vol. XVIII, No. 4)" is a false reference - this organization does not seem to actually exist beyond Misplaced Pages and other websites that only seem to copy/paste what is in this paragraph regarding OTC access to Codeine. I've had a professional literature search done and come back with absolutely nothing. | |||
| Laws have recently been introduced in this area in the UK. There is no information on the subject in this article about this anywhere in the world. Should the ignorance of the possibility of driving impairment due to 'normal' use of prescription codeine and the possible legal penalties be included in this article? This is complicated by the fact the the UK legal limit is in metabolised opium per litre of blood, which will vary due to genetic differences. | |||
| ==Greece, clarification needed == | |||
| The entry on Greece seems contradictory ]. It says you cannot have it even with a prescription and then, that you can have it with a prescription. Clarification is needed, for instance, it might be the case that you cannot have it under a foreign prescription but you can with a local one. ] (]) 14:29, 6 January 2016 (UTC) | |||

| Codeine definitely helps allergic cough too, as well as cough caused by mucus, in the throat, and so on. I dont see that explicitly stated anywhere in the article, so I was thinking it should be added. Also, chronic cough it definitely helps with. | |||
| Emprazil has been banned in the United States since the 80's but was under scrutiny in the 60's. I don't need to cite a source for that as it's on Misplaced Pages already. By mentioning an Emprazil formulation with codeine with versions of 1-5, it leads one on to believe it is legal. Further mentioning of a #5 being 90mg codeine mislieads many to think there may be a Tylenol 5. | |||

Prescription drug driving impairment and legal penalties.
Laws have recently been introduced in this area in the UK. There is no information on the subject in this article about this anywhere in the world. Should the ignorance of the possibility of driving impairment due to 'normal' use of prescription codeine and the possible legal penalties be included in this article? This is complicated by the fact the the UK legal limit is in metabolised opium per litre of blood, which will vary due to genetic differences.
Codeine and allergic cough
Codeine definitely helps allergic cough too, as well as cough caused by mucus, in the throat, and so on. I dont see that explicitly stated anywhere in the article, so I was thinking it should be added. Also, chronic cough it definitely helps with.
About the side effects, it can cause vomiting too, but this is not stated. At high doses, it can even cause Gastritis, inflammation of the stomach. Noam111g (talk) 03:21, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
Codeine and barbiturates
In the History section, the article talks about "codeine-based barbiturates" and then goes on to list a number of different barbiturate drugs. However, the connection between these and codeine is not expanded upon in any way. Even clicking the links to the articles about the specific barbiturates doesn't yield any information, as none of those articles make any mention of codeine. I think the problem is with the phrase "codeine-based barbiturates" which would seem to indicate that a codeine molecule is connected to a barbiturate molecule, when that does not appear to be the case for any of these. Is it talking about preparations where codeine is combined with a barbiturate? If so, none of the specific articles on the barbiturates themselves mention formulations containing codeine, so I'm left wondering where this phrase came from.

Isn`t 'Legal status' unduly long?
I`m a lamer, I don`t undestand wikipedia`s hiden universe and etc, I`m terribly sorry for this invasion. But why does this chapter exist in that exact way? I don't think the data on time-to-time changing local laws should be there. In fact, it`s useles - I cheked for Latvia (cus I`m patriot) and Co-Codamol is now only sold by prescription and 30mg. If they need that data for purpose, they still can`t relate without doublechecking - no sense found. And I also can`t just delete, it will be "-1000 & undo" P.S.
