Pholcodine
A cough suppressant of the opioid family, with a structure similar to that of morphine, it was used for decades to calm dry, unproductive cough, mainly as a syrup and in lozenges. This family brings together the active ingredient and other impurities.
Did you know?Its alternative names, morpholinylethylmorphine and homocodeine, describe its structure. Although it is an opioid, it has only a mild sedative effect and little or no painkilling action: it works mainly on cough.
