Understanding Codeine Addiction
Codeine is a prescription pain medication utilized for mild to moderate pain management and is an ingredient in prescription-grade cough suppressants. It is typically available in tablet form and combined with Acetaminophen in popular painkillers like Tylenol 3. Despite its medicinal purposes, patients prescribed Codeine can unwittingly develop an addiction to this opiate narcotic.
As an opiate, Codeine shares its classification with substances like Oxycodone, Heroin, and Morphine. Sometimes, codeine use initially begins with a doctor’s prescription, commonly in the form of a Codeine-based cough syrup. Codeine is less regulated than more potent opiates like Morphine and OxyContin, making it relatively easy to obtain and abuse. Codeine, while less potent, yields effects akin to Morphine.
A significant risk associated with Codeine use is the development of tolerance and subsequent dependence. Many individuals start using Codeine to address medical issues, only to escalate usage due to the development of tolerance. Consequently, Codeine is misused to manage both physical and emotional pain, leading to a dangerous cycle of chemical coping and addiction.
Although some perceive Codeine as harmless, high doses of the drug can lead to severe consequences, including respiratory failure, coma, and even death. This risk amplifies when Codeine is combined with other central nervous system depressants such as alcohol, benzodiazepines, or additional opioids.

At SequoiaMD, we believe in individualized addiction treatment. We develop personalized treatment plans tailored to patients’ specific needs and circumstances.

We understand the importance of a safe and non-judgmental space in the recovery journey. Our experienced medical staff fosters an atmosphere of acceptance, empowering patients to seek the help they need without fear of judgment.
People dealing with Substance Use Disorders (SUD) often harbor fears of mistreatment, rejection, and judgment, which pose substantial obstacles to their recovery journey. To aid these individuals in their path to healing, we embrace non-judgmental, accepting, and supportive attitudes throughout the addiction treatment process. We foster an environment where those battling substance abuse can experience safety, understanding, and empowerment to seek necessary help. Our skilled medical professionals are dedicated to diminishing the stigma linked with substance use disorders, emphasizing that addiction is a disease necessitating treatment, not a sign of weak willpower.

Understanding the science behind addiction, learning effective coping mechanisms, and honing life skills are integral parts of our programs. We empower patients to take charge of their recovery journey, equipping them with the tools needed to maintain lasting sobriety and rebuild their lives.
Our medical professionals can work together with a range of healthcare experts, including psychiatrists, psychologists, counselors, and social workers, to offer a comprehensive approach to addiction treatment.

One of the most powerful tools in the recovery toolkit is the support of others who have walked a similar path. SequoiaMD provides a supportive community where patients can connect with individuals who understand their struggles intimately. Through group therapy, peer support sessions, and communal activities, patients can find camaraderie and encouragement. Sharing experiences and triumphs in a safe space fosters a sense of belonging, reminding them that they are not alone in their journey to sobriety.
We recognize that addiction affects not only the individual but also their loved ones. Our family therapy sessions provide a platform for open communication and understanding, fostering healing within familial relationships. We equip families with tools to support recovery and rebuild trust, ensuring a strong foundation for life beyond addiction.
