Codeine phosphate and buprenorphine are both opioid medications, but they are different substances with distinct properties. Codeine is a prodrug that is metabolized into morphine, primarily used for pain relief and cough suppression. Buprenorphine, on the other hand, is a partial opioid agonist used in pain management and for treating opioid dependence. While they both act on opioid receptors, their mechanisms, uses, and effects differ significantly.
