bells Codeine Linctus buy online in uk is a treatment for persistent, unproductive and annoying dry coughs. This treatment works by suppressing the body’s cough instinct and reducing the amount you cough. It’s therefore important to be sure that your cough is not productive, and that no phlegm is ‘sitting’ in your throat or chest. Using this medicine when you have phlegm associated with your cough can result in a build-up of phlegm.
The active ingredient in the linctus is Codeine. Codeine is from the family of drugs called opioids, and as well as the effect on reducing coughing, it can also be used as a pain killer. This medication is not for use as a pain killer, however, as there are specific painkilling medicines containing codeine such as co-codamol.
One of the main side effects of codeine is drowsiness. You should not drive or operate machinery until you know how this medication affects you.
