Can you get addicted to morphine?
As a pharmacist I can say some people get violently ill from morphine. This is NOT the same as an allergic reaction. It would be considered a side effect. Some symptoms are headache and nausea/vomiting. If you are sensitive to morphine please inform your physician so they can avoid prescribing it to you in the future. An allergic reaction is much more serious and can lead to hives, rash and difficulty in breathing.
