A member asked:
Is there anything stronger than promethazine/codine for cough?because it isn't working for me
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Codeine is: A powerful cough supressant. If this is not helping, you might have asthma. Go back to your doctor and have him reassess your case if your cough is persisting despite codeine.
