Opioids and Brain Fog

Summary

Co-codamol, codeine combined with paracetamol, taken daily for about three years, is described by a forum poster as their means of managing head discomfort and brain fog. Illness duration before starting and severity are not stated. They report it quickly clears the head discomfort and lets them function somewhat, with slightly increased cognitive capacity while it is active. This is symptom management rather than a cure, taken continuously rather than as a one-off course, so ongoing daily use is required to maintain the effect. No relapse or discontinuation is mentioned.
