Dear lybrate-user,
check the small print on tossex and see if it contains codeine and chlorpheniramine maleate. If it contains codeine, and if your mother is sued to taking it for many years she may be addicted to the codeine component and it will be difficult to stop it. Codeine is a narcotic drug and can cause chronic constipation
there is something called tossex new which does not seem to contain codeine you can try changing over to that

Look you have abused many substances known to produce dependence. If you have anxiety do not self medicate by these drugs as these may harm you, better take professional advise from a psychiatrist for deaddiction and control of your anxiety symptoms.

That is the attraction to drugs: it makes you feel better. If that was not so who would take it anyway? Codeine addiction is worsened by increasing tolerance levels for the drug. If you are having a serious addiction and you cannot quit its use, you will have to admit yourself to a rehabilitation center and go through their program for a complete recovery. This type of treatment is ideal because it takes you away from the influences of people and circumstances that you have gotten conditioned to...more
