    Author: Eddy NB, Friebel H, Hahn KJ, Halbach H.
    Journal: Bull World Health Organ; 1969; 40(5):639-719. PubMed ID: 4390406.
    Abstract:
    In this report-the fourth of a series on codeine and its alternates for pain and cough relief-an attempt is made to evaluate, on the basis of experimental and clinical data, and wherever possible in comparison with codeine, the effectiveness of a number of antitussive substances currently in clinical use. In the discussion of the undesired side-effects particular attention is paid to the risk of dependence and abuse.
