How much is a bottle of codeine?

Prices for codeine vary a lot by country, form, and dosage, and codeine is a controlled substance in many places. A “bottle” could mean a bottle of codeine-containing cough syrup, or a bottle of codeine tablets (often in a combination product with acetaminophen or aspirin). In many places you’ll need a prescription.

If you tell me:
- your country or region
- which product you’re asking about (e.g., codeine-containing cough syrup vs. acetaminophen/Codeine tablets)
- the bottle size or strength

I can give you a rough price range for that specific item.

For a very rough idea:
- United States: prescription acetaminophen-codeine tablets typically cost more without insurance (roughly $15–$60 for a 30–60 tablet bottle, depending on strength and pharmacy). Codeine cough syrups are usually prescribed and can range broadly, roughly $10–$50 per bottle without insurance.
- United Kingdom (where sales are tightly regulated): co-codamol packs are usually sold in small packs; prices often around £1–£5 for common packs, larger packs a bit more.
- Canada: Rx codeine products vary by province and insurance; small bottle costs can be roughly in the $10–$40 range with insurance, higher without.

If you’re looking to obtain codeine, I can help you think through safe, legal options or alternatives and how to talk to a pharmacist or doctor. If you can share your location and the exact product you have in mind, I’ll tailor the estimate.
