Codeine and Cannabis: Understanding Potential Interactions and Risks

Codeine and Cannabis:

WHAT IS CODEINE?

An opioid drug called codeine is frequently administered to alleviate pain, coughing, and diarrhoea. It is a member of the class of drugs known as opioids or narcotic analgesics.

WHAT IS WEED?

A psychoactive substance generated from the cannabis plant is weed, sometimes known as marijuana. It has therapeutic qualities that are used to treat a range of illnesses, such as chronic pain, tension, and anxiety.

CANYOUCOMBINEMARIJUANAANDCODEINE?

Codeine and marijuana affect distinct receptors and substances in the body. Codeine and marijuana hence cannot be combined. Codeine and marijuana both have the potential to sedate users and lower their breathing. Additionally, mixing codeine and marijuana can exacerbate mental illness and exacerbate opioid use disorder (OUD).
