Morphine and codeine.
Heroin breaks down into codeine and morphine. Codeine breaks down into morphine. The opiate drug tests look for codeine, morphine, and 6-acetyl-morphine. The presence of 6-acetyl-morphine is relatively conclusive of recent heroin use, but is only detectable for a few hours after use. The presence of codeine can be the result of either heroin or codeine use. The presence of morphine can be the result of the use of heroin, codeine, or morphine. Relative levels of codeine and morphine can help determine their origin.

Morphine is 10 times stronger than codeine. Morphine and methadone are highly addictive, while codeine only moderately.
Heroin is in its pure state and bonds to opiate receptors in the brain far better than morphine and codeine. Codeine is a derivative of opium where as heroin is actual opium. Codeine and Morphine are broken down and made relatively safe by pharmaceutical companies, where as heroin is made to be strong, without proper dosing. They both (codeine, morphine) bond differently than heroin and to less receptors in the brain, making them less effective, as well as addictive. Both are still very addictive, beware.
Tylenol with codeine and morphine are both narcotics. The actual chemical name for codeine is methylmorphine. Both are derived from the poppy plant.(opium) Codeine has most of the pharmacologic characteristics of morphine. Just not as strong
