For humans, excess use of codeine may cause death. Codeine is in the same family as Heroin. The Opioids. But codeine is a much more timid dose. Still, unwise consumption of codeine can cause dependence on it, can cause a human to fail to eliminate (constipation) can cause breathing issues to arise;and may cause death by lack of breathing if the human is asleep and not watched. Once the codeine intake is stopped, humans usually have loose bowels, perspiration& general withdrawal symptoms.

Can codeine harm an unborn fetus?

Technically, no. It is listed as pregnancy risk category C. Researching via Google shows there are not many, if any, clinical testing for pregnant women who take codeine, so there is insufficient data in humans. Which does not mean it is safe for a pregnant woman to take codeine. It only means more testing must be done before a definitive answer can be provided.
