Codeine : If you are asking about 8 year old cough syrup then likely only sedation and possible abdominal pain or nausea. Don't take meds that old, who knows what else could be in there now or what chemicals have broken down. You wouldn't drink milk that old!

Codeine cough syrup: If i understand your question correctly, you are consuming Codeine cough syrup for the last 8 years? It sounds like you might have not been using this for a cough, but perhaps for some other reason. Used chronically, Codeine can be addictive and also cause constipation, lightheadeness, drowsiness, nausea, sweating, etc. http://tinyurl.com/khflmgd.
