The cognitive effects of dihydcodeine can be broken down into several components which progressively intensify proportional to dosage. The general head space of codeine is described by many as one of intense euphoria, relaxation, anxiety suppression and pain relief. | |||
<p> | |||
The most prominent of these cognitive effects generally include:</p> | |||
<li class="featured list-item"> | |||
*'''[[Effect::Pain relief]]''' - This component is subjectively different from other anaesthetics as it does not necessarily remove the pain entirely whilst still remaining equal in terms of its effectiveness. Instead of directly suppressing pain, these substances simply dull the perceived sensation and cover it up with feelings of physical and emotional pleasure. | *'''[[Effect::Pain relief]]''' - This component is subjectively different from other anaesthetics as it does not necessarily remove the pain entirely whilst still remaining equal in terms of its effectiveness.

*'''[[Effect::Physical euphoria|Euphoria]]''' - This particular substance can be considered as less intense in its physical euphoria when compared with that of [[morphine]] or [[diacetylmorphine]] (heroin) due to the upper limit of how much can be converted into its active form through metabolism | *'''[[Effect::Physical euphoria|Euphoria]]''' - This particular substance can be considered as less intense in its physical euphoria when compared with that of [[morphine]] or [[diacetylmorphine]] (heroin) due to the upper limit of how much can be converted into its active form through metabolism. The sensation itself can be described as extreme feelings of hyper intense physical comfort, snugglyness, warmth and physical blissful euphoria which emanates throughout the body. | ||

*'''[[Effect::Respiratory depression]]''' - At low to moderate doses, this effect results in the sensation that the breath is slowed down mildly to moderately, but does not cause noticeable impairment. At high doses and overdoses, opioid-induced respiratory depression can result in a shortness of breath, abnormal breathing patterns, semi-consciousness, or unconsciousness. Severe overdoses can result in a coma or death without immediate medical attention. | *'''[[Effect::Respiratory depression]]''' - At low to moderate doses, this effect results in the sensation that the breath is slowed down mildly to moderately, but does not cause noticeable impairment.
