CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY

analgesic, codeine, with a
peripherally acting analgesic, acetaminophen.
PHARMACOKINETICS
The behavior of the individual components is described below.
CODEINE
Codeine is readily absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. It is
rapidly distributed from the
intravascular spaces to the various body tissues, with preferential
uptake by parenchymatous organs
such as the liver, spleen and kidney. Codeine crosses the blood-brain
barrier, and is found in fetal tissue
and breast milk. The plasma concentration does not correlate with
brain concentration or relief of pain;
however, codeine is not bound to plasma proteins and does not
accumulate in body tissues.
The plasma half-life is about 2.9 hours. The elimination of codeine is
primarily via the kidneys, and
about 90% of an oral dose is excreted by the kidneys within 24 hours
of dosing. The urinary secretion
products consist of free and glucuronide conjugated codeine (about
70%), free and conjugated
norcodeine (about 10%), free and conjugated morphine (about 10%),
