Does codeine cause constipation?

Codeine is an opioid. Opioids can slow down the central nervous system which oversees how the body responds to pain. The nervous system also controls involuntary movements, including those of the digestive tract. For this reason, taking opioids can result in constipation. However, there are natural remedies available for opioid-induced constipation, for instance, drinking more water, eating more fiber, and getting exercise when possible. 

Consult with a healthcare professional or pharmacist before taking herbal remedies, as they may interact with or decrease the effectiveness of medications.

People who suffer from pain reported that they experienced at least 50% pain relief over 4 to 6 hours with the intake of codeine 60 mg. It also suppresses the activity in the brain that controls coughing.
