The main difference is in the hydration state of the molecules. Codeine phosphate BP is the anhydrous form of the codeine salt, while codeine phosphate hemihydrate contains one water molecule per codeine phosphate molecule. This difference can affect properties like solubility and stability.

There are no known drug interactions between lidocaine and Depo Provera
Codeine phosphate is a weaker opioid compared to dihydrocodeine, meaning dihydrocodeine is more potent. Both are used for pain relief, but dihydrocodeine is typically prescribed for moderate to severe pain, while codeine phosphate is often used for milder pain or as a cough suppressant.
Codeine phosphate is a standalone medication that contains codeine, a mild opioid pain reliever, while co-codamol is a combination medication containing codeine and paracetamol (acetaminophen). Co-codamol is typically used for more moderate to severe pain, whereas codeine phosphate can be used for milder pain. Additionally, co-codamol is available in different strengths, depending on the ratio of codeine to paracetamol.
Tramadol is a drug used to treat pain that is severe and needs around-the-clock treatment. Codeine is a drug used to treat pain for a short period of time.
The only real difference between Actavis Promethazine Codeine Syrup and Caraco's version is availability and perhaps flavor. Actavis pulled its codeine syrup from the shelves and no longer offers it. Caraco's version is reportedly less fruity and flavorful.
Tylenol Extra Strength is 500mg of acetaminophen only. Tylenol #1 is 300mg of acetaminophen and 8mg of codeine. Tylenol #2 is 300mg of acetaminophen and 15mg of codeine. Tylenol #3 is 300mg of acetaminophen and 30mg of codeine. Tylenol #4 is 300mg of acetaminophen and 60mg of codeine.
Is lidocaine a steroid
One has morphine, one has codeine. Taken orally morphine is some 20 times stronger than codeine (but the syrup will have less morphine per mL). Morphine can be more dangerous and addicitive in some ways but both are very similar.
There is no fentanyl in a lidocaine patch. It is a lidocaine patch not a fentanyl patch.
Codeine cough syrup may be purple, pink, orange, or clear.
