Description
Curator's Comment: Description was created based on several sources, including http://www.phadia.com/Global/ImmunoCAP%20Allergens/Product%20Leaflets/Product_Leaflet_c261_Pholcodine.pdf http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23773349

Pholcodine is an opioid that has been widely used worldwide since 1950 for the treatment of non-productive cough in children and adults. Illicit drug. Additionally Pholcodine is a marker for sensitization to neuromuscular blocking agents (NMBA) and is intended for use as a diagnostic tool in NMBA-induced anaphylaxis.
