>Oh- good to know. So there is a distinction-I guess that's why I was able to have morphine while on Emsam. I think some drug guides perhaps are brief and seem to generalize, like saying "no opiates". ps- That morphine sure seemed to be anti-depressing.
That's true. Codeine is metabolized to morphine by the liver and it has little or no analgesic action if taken with drugs that block the cytochrome P450 enzyme CYP2D6 such as Prozac and Celexa. One of natures most effective antidepressants IMHO.
