Description
Thiocodin syrup 100 ml Bottle
Thiocodin syrup 100 ml contains the active ingredient codeine, which acts on the cough reflex in the brain to help reduce the urge to cough. This makes it an effective treatment for persistent coughs caused by conditions such as bronchitis, asthma, or the common cold.
Before taking this medicine
You should not use this medicine if you are allergic to it, or if you have:
- severe asthma or breathing problems;
- a blockage in your stomach or intestines; or
- frequent asthma attacks or hyperventilation.
In some people, codeine breaks down rapidly in the liver and reaches higher than normal levels in the body. This can cause dangerously slow breathing and may cause death, especially in a child.
Do not give codeine to anyone younger than 18 years old.
