Long ago, I went a few years where I got horrid "monthly" cramps. I'ld feel like I could almost collapse. A heating pad helped. When the cramping was so bad that I had to leave work, I decided to see our family doctor. He put me on something that contained codeine. That med was a tremendous help.

I would recommend that anyone taking codeine should take a laxative with it.
