Opiates will repress certain systolic things, cillical functions, peristalitic functions (this is what causes constipation during opiate use). So, it can relax the reflex to cough due to tracheal congestion. It can also cause drowsiness, and you generally don't cough while asleep. This is complicated as around 25% of the human population cannot metabolize codeine properly (I am in this cohort) which means it can be a suppressant, it is not generally a suppressant. So, your definition of "good" matters."Is Codeine a good cough suppressant?"

I still remember Obama defunding mental health facilities, at the behest of the insurance industry. Then the addition of “do you have guns at home” being added to healthcare questionnaires. I believe it is an end run to disarmament, as what’s best for society.
