I need a bit of advice really.
I am an asthmatic and with my current anxiety it is sending me into hysterics of panic. I take codeine to reduce pain and had one earlier this morning for a headache. It occurred to me that I was much calmer earlier and was wondering whether the drug I had taken had calmed me down.
I'm not talking on a permanent basis- I'm taking for 2 days (over the weekend until my doctors is open). Does it actually calm you down? Codeine that is.
I understand it is very addictive but have taken codeine containing drugs for numerous days previous to this time. I normally don't even need to take as much as the stated dose of "2" soluable tablets.
I just need something to tide me over until I can get back to my doctors and have my medication reassessed. Is there anything people can suggest? Or could I take small doses of my pain killer just to calm me down, especially before sleep.
Thanks
