Codiene is generally found in cough medications, hydrocodone is a tablet, capsule shaped, or round, opiate/opioid containing medication very/highly addictive. Can be found on drug screens etc. The cough syrup containing codiene is prescription as well. The break down of the codiene is different in the syrup versus the pills.
