NwaAmaikpe: So there are no cough medicine that don't contain Codeine? There are MANY types of cough syrup and only one type was banned. Why the hysteria? In fact, cough syrup don't even CURE cough, it only address the symptoms by suppressing the feeling of cough. The body is left to address the primary cause of the cough. It is only when it persists that antibiotics is used to help the body. 1 Like 1 Share |

firstolalekan: Why ban codeine when ordinary Zimbabwe is legalizing Marijuana for health purpose? Why is Nigeria government always backward in thinking The TVC did a documentary on the abuse of codeine about two years back nothing was done The BBC did their own documentary the federal government quickly started reactionary measure just to appear good in international level? |

martineverest: Not exactly true sir. The BBC even stated in the documentary that the company was investigating the staff. Emzor didn't do "nothing". We need to learn to protect our own in Nigeria and Africa. Is what happened at Emzor that different from what happened in Facebook (Cambridge Analytica scandal)? Was facebook shut down even when it was clear that they were negligent and culpable in putting millions of people at risk? The answer is no. Instead they called the head honcho, gave him a talking too and asked him to do better. If this was Nigeria, NCC might have banned facebook and shut down it's operations |

firstolalekan: Don't be blatantly and proudly ignorant, son! Certain severe kinds of dry cough respond only to codeine. Do your research, and stop attacking people obviously more intelligent than you are. Thank you. |

hm54: Am no fan of his, but you have no proper intellectual ground or basis to term his write-up senseless. His comparisons are quite sacrosanct. Your government agency is merely being unnecessarily reactive, and truly tossing the baby with the bath water. Why not outrightly ban production/importation of all sedatives like valium, lexotan, etc? Proper regulation of all addictive substances in supply is the sole duty of nafdac, and trust me it's not that difficult to do if they were committed in the first place. That is what all countries do, even Ghana. Where have you heard that any country banned the production and sale of codeine-based cough suppressants??! |
