Are opioid painkillers addictive?

They carry a risk of dependence, which is why they are prescribed for defined periods and reviewed. Take them exactly as prescribed.

Why is codeine combined with paracetamol?

The two act on pain by different routes, so a combination can control pain at a lower opioid dose.

Can I drive while taking one?

Opioids cause drowsiness and slow reactions. Driving is generally advised against, particularly at the start of a course.
