Medical Forum / General / Pharmacy / April 2007Inhaled Codeine???????????
A friend of mine who has emphysema was prescribed codeine to be compounded into an inhalation soln for his nebulizer. I'm old school, and I have never heard of such a thing. I thought codeine did it's magic by way of the brain. Does anyone know the rationale for this seemingly odd treatment? > A friend of mine who has emphysema was prescribed codeine to be compounded > into an inhalation soln for his nebulizer.
