Codeine dreams

Hello everyone,

I'm currently taking 2 x 15mg of codeine before I go to bed for the pain and also to help me sleep.

I find that I get really vivid dreams whenever I take codeine, they are not nightmares but pretty trippy and super disorientating when I wake up.

Does anyone else have the same thing?

Hi i hope you are ok. Codeine can make people feel very spaced out, especially if you are not use to taking them. When i started taking codeine they made me feel weird. I wouldn't worry too much about the dreams. Im sorry if that doesn't help you much 😕

As i said sorry it's not much help. Codeine can have many side effects, maybe google it and you will find more information. X
