Some cough syrups contain codeine, a substance extracted from opium, which can cause long-term dependence and even symptoms similar to "drug addiction" episodes in children.

    Cough syrup containing codeine, which is only suitable for cough suppressants with a dry cough, is best not used in patients with a lot of phlegm, as it can block the discharge of sputum, which in turn can block the airway.

    cough syrups containing codeine, especially with caution, should be discontinued when symptoms disappear; Because codeine is one of the ingredients of opiates, it has excellent antitussive effects, this syrup can suppress coughs as long as 10ml, but improper dosage or long-term use will not only cause serious *** but even addiction.

    Because cough syrup tastes sweet and does not taste like medicine, if you take it for a long time unconsciously, you will become addicted, experts point out that some people take codeine-containing cough syrup as a drink, drink it when they are sick or not, and finally lead to addiction.
