They do not sell codeine cough syrup OTC in the USA. You can buy codeine products OTC in Canada, though. 8mgs per dose. The only way to get narcotic cough syrup is to have a doctors perscription. To set the record straight cough syrup that contains codeine may be purchased not over the counter but by asking the Pharmacist for the medication and then siging for it in a log that we keep behind the counter. For the folks that like to make bold statements ie the cough syrup with codeine can not be purchased any where in the USA.. you need to do some background work. I do not know the regulations of every state but in Tennessee this product can be purchased in a pharmacy.
I'd love to know and will begin calling around in the morning...
In Iowa, cough syrups containing codeine are classified as controlled substances and are available only through a prescription from a licensed healthcare provider. You cannot purchase them over the counter; instead, you must visit a doctor or healthcare professional who can evaluate your condition and provide a prescription if necessary.

You should be able to purchase this at mom and pop pharmacies around town. Not the big chain stores but smaller local only places. In Tennessee you can buy the codeine containing cough syrup at the chain pharmacies (Walgreen's for example can not keep it in stock. A log book has to be signed so it is not really OTC but no prescription required.
Our nieghbor,Canada, offers low dose codiene product OTC. In the US, low dose schedule 5 is supposed to be available over the counter with a signature and showing the pharmacist your drivers license. Why the pharmacists will not allow people to buy it is because of some sort of state law or just the phobia of drugs in the US. Ask a trusted local pharmacist, perhaps they will help you or refer you to a physician so you can spend several hundred dollars just to get a small bottle of 8 mg aspirin codiene. Presently , it is allowed for us citizens of Washington to bring a 50 count bottle of tablets, or 1 bottle of cough syrup from Canada. Dont try to bring 2 bottles, and don't hide medicine, be honest and forthcomming and do not mess with our border people....for obvious reasons. You can bring back 1 bottle of 50 count aspirin codiene 8mg.-they are allowed.
