I take daily a bottle of cough syrup corex regular for the last 1 year what are the consequences and will it effect my body? how can i quit
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Drug addiction: Since corex contains codiene, and since youve been taking it for a year i would say you have a drug addiction. Seek help from an addiction center or your physician.
