Hi,

Why are you tasking codeine for cough or diarrhea or pain? I suggest you to take

1.If you are taking codeine for cough you can alternate it with dextromethorphan syrup, and honey also as it is a natural cough suppresent.

2.If you are taking codeine for any other reason kindly mention it so I can prescribe an alternative for it.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
