CAS 1422-07-7: codeine hydrochloride
Description:Codeine hydrochloride is an opiate used primarily for its analgesic, antitussive, and antidiarrheal properties. It is a white to off-white crystalline powder that is soluble in water and alcohol, making it suitable for various pharmaceutical formulations. As a prodrug, codeine is metabolized in the liver to morphine, which contributes to its pain-relieving effects. Its chemical structure features a phenanthrene core with a methoxy group and a hydroxyl group, which are responsible for its pharmacological activity. Codeine hydrochloride is typically administered in oral form, and its effects can vary based on individual metabolism and dosage. While it is effective for managing mild to moderate pain, it also carries a risk of dependence and side effects, including drowsiness, constipation, and respiratory depression. Due to its potential for abuse, codeine is classified as a controlled substance in many jurisdictions, necessitating careful regulation and monitoring in medical use.
