Warnings
This medication carries a risk of abuse and dependency, which can result in overdose and potentially fatal outcomes. It may also cause serious breathing difficulties. To minimize these risks, your healthcare provider should prescribe the lowest effective dose for the shortest necessary duration.
- The likelihood of experiencing severe breathing issues is heightened when starting the medication, if the dosage is incorrect, or if more than the prescribed amount is taken.
- Combining this drug with alcohol or other substances that induce drowsiness or respiratory problems can lead to severe, even fatal, consequences.
- Some medications can interfere with how this drug is processed in your body, affecting its efficacy. It's crucial to understand how to properly use this medication and which other drugs to avoid.
Seek immediate medical assistance if you experience any of the following critical side effects: slow or shallow breathing, unusual lightheadedness, severe drowsiness or dizziness, or difficulty waking up.
- Store this medication securely to prevent theft, misuse, or abuse.
- In case of accidental ingestion, seek medical help immediately.
For women of childbearing age, it is essential to discuss the potential risks and benefits with your doctor prior to using this medication. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant or suspect you might be. This medication is not advised during pregnancy, as it might slightly increase the risk of birth defects if used in the first two months. Long-term or high-dose use near the delivery date may harm the unborn child. To reduce risk, use the smallest effective dose for the shortest time possible. Newborns exposed to this drug in utero may experience severe, potentially life-threatening withdrawal symptoms. Contact your doctor if your baby shows signs such as persistent crying, slow or shallow breathing, irritability, shaking, vomiting, diarrhea, feeding difficulties, or problems gaining weight.
Promethazine-codeine Side Effects
You may experience some common side effects, including drowsiness, dizziness, headache, lightheadedness, blurred vision, upset stomach, nausea, constipation, or dry mouth. If these persist or worsen, consult your healthcare provider. To minimize dizziness and lightheadedness, rise slowly from sitting or lying positions. This medication can thicken mucus in the lungs, making breathing and lung clearing more difficult. Staying hydrated can help alleviate this, unless advised otherwise.
While many individuals do not encounter severe side effects, it is important to be aware of them. Contact your healthcare provider immediately if you experience serious side effects such as sleep apnea, involuntary movements, mental/mood changes, ringing in the ears, tremors, urination difficulties, or weakness. Seek urgent medical attention for severe side effects like persistent nausea/vomiting, easy bruising/bleeding, slow heartbeat, severe abdominal pain, yellowing of eyes/skin, or seizures.
In some cases, codeine transforms into morphine more quickly in the body, raising the risk of significant side effects. Immediate medical help should be sought if you notice slow or shallow breathing, severe drowsiness, difficulty waking, or confusion. Rarely, neuroleptic malignant syndrome (NMS) may occur, which requires urgent care if you experience symptoms such as fever, muscle issues, severe fatigue, confusion, sweating, irregular heartbeat, dark urine, or signs of kidney problems.
Allergic reactions to this medication are rare but can be serious. Seek immediate medical help for symptoms like rash, itching, swelling (particularly of the face/tongue/throat), severe dizziness, or breathing difficulties. If you notice any side effects not listed, contact your healthcare provider.
Interactions
Certain products can interact with this medication. These include skin-applied antihistamines like diphenhydramine cream, ointment, or spray, as well as Cimetidine, Metoclopramide, Naltrexone, and samidorphan. Combining this drug with other substances that cause drowsiness or breathing issues can heighten the risk of severe side effects, such as slow or shallow breathing and extreme drowsiness or dizziness. Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you're using other opioid pain or cough medications like morphine or hydrocodone, alcohol, marijuana (cannabis), sleep or anxiety drugs like Alprazolam, Lorazepam, or Zolpidem, muscle relaxants like Carisoprodol or Cyclobenzaprine, or other antihistamines such as Cetirizine or diphenhydramine.
Check all your medication labels, including those for allergy or cough-and-cold products, since they might contain ingredients that cause drowsiness. Consult your pharmacist on how to use these products safely.
Additionally, some medications can alter how your body processes codeine/promethazine, impacting its effectiveness. Examples of such drugs include azole antifungals like Ketoconazole, bupropion, Fluoxetine, macrolide antibiotics like Erythromycin, paroxetine, quinidine, rifamycins like Rifabutin or Rifampin, Ritonavir, and certain seizure treatments like Carbamazepine or Phenytoin.
This medication might also interfere with specific lab tests, such as some pregnancy tests, blood sugar tests, and amylase or lipase levels, potentially leading to incorrect results. Ensure that all your healthcare providers and laboratory personnel are aware that you're taking this medication.
