No, codeine is a prescription medication. Codeine is a schedule II drug in the united states, which means it is only available by prescription. Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Schedule_II_drugs_%28US%29
In the US, codeine is a schedule 2 drug that may be prescribed by a medical doctor to relieve pain, for the most part. It may also be used to relieve a severe cough. It can only be used by the person to whom the prescription applies. Selling codeine on the street or allowing others to take a person's prescribed codeine is illegal.
"Class" is a bit ambiguous."Tylenol 2" refers to a specific brand and formulation of acetaminophen (paracetamol) and codeine. Acetaminophen is an analgesic (pain reliever) and antipyretic (fever reducer). Codeine is a narcotic (it also has other properties, such as being an antitussive (cough suppressant)).Codeine itself is a Schedule II drug, but when mixed with acetaminophen, it is usually classified as Schedule III (mixing it with acetaminophen reduces the abuse potential, because acetaminophen is toxic to the liver in doses much above the recommended therapeutic dose; this keeps people from just taking many Tylenol 2 pills to obtain a large dose of codeine).
no hydrocodone is nothing near cocaine and will be traceble for like 2 days if that
Only Tylenol #3 which can only be accessed through doctors permission. ---------------------------- Nope. If the Tylenol (or acetaminophen) has a number (#1, 2, 3, or 4) it has increasing doses of codeine - Tylenol #1 has 8mg (with the 325mg acetaminophen), #2 has 15mg, #3 has 30mg (the most often used), and #4 has 60mg per tab. All are Controlled Substances in the U.S., Schedule III. Permission doesn't enter into it - they all require a prescription with DEA number, or in some states a special controlled drug form. They can be prescribed by phone, unlike Schedule II (morphine, Ritalin etc.). Canada allows their #1 version to be sold over the counter. Happy pain relief. --OLD MD
A schedule II substance usually refers to cocaine or codeine cough syrup but can be other drugs. In NC, possession of 1 oz of cocaine or more is a felony
schedule 2
All Controlled Substances (narcotics, barbiturates and combination drugs/derivatives) are listed under 5 Schedules, each one being a list of narcotics/compound drugs and barbiturates based on their content and abuse potential. Each has specific access, prescription and dispense requirements as well. The Schedules are maintained by the DEA. Schedule 1 drugs are all of the illegal drugs - Heroin, Marijuana, etc. No viable medical use. (medical marijuana is a completely different animal) Schedule 2 - Everything I take. Drugs in this Schedule include Oxycodone, Codeine, Fentanyl, Morphine, Dilaudid, Meperidine (Demerol), Methamphetamines and combinations using these. No prescription refills allowed, and no call-in prescriptions allowed. Patient must have a new prescription for each refill. I've been doing it every month for the past 9 years. Schedule 3 - Hydrocodone (Vicodin) and combinations, Butalbital, Codeine analgesics (low amount of Codeine with another drug), etc. Can be refilled and called in. Schedule 4 - Most of the minor pain stuff - Darvon, Analgesic combo's, etc. Also includes stuff like Ambien. Schedule 5 - Codeine and Opium based oral preparations (syrups), similar type drugs. Note: Most bizarrely, methamphetamine is considered to have "medicinal value" (the military uses it) so it is a schedule 2 rather than schedule 1, yet marijuana is considered schedule 1 even though it can be prescribed by a doctor and there is a pure pill form manufactured by pharmaceutical companies that can also be prescribed. Politics in action.
approximately 200mg codeine for similar effects to 30mg oral morphine (not IV!)
