Safe Use of Codeine

The Pharmaceutical Society of Australia (PSA) has developed a leaflet for consumers alerting them to the dangers of inappropriate use of combination codeine pain relievers.

The leaflet was designed to be a useful tool for pharmacists to use counselling patients on their pain management, PSA said.

The leaflets are available in packs of 100 for pharmacists from the PSA Bookshop and is also available for download by clicking here.
