I take 8  dispersible Paracetamol tablets and  8  Codeine Phosphate tablets a day.

Often these are nowhere near strong enough but I cannot take anything  Morphine based.

Hi francypants

maybe you are on a small amount of codeine, some of the codeine does turn to morphine.

Variation in metabolism

The capacity to metabolise codeine to morphine can vary considerably between individuals; there is a marked increase in morphine toxicity in patients who are ultra-rapid codeine metabolisers (CYP2D6 ultra-rapid metabolisers) and a reduced therapeutic effect in poor codeine metabolisers.
