Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Yes, you are right. One should not give morphine unless it is strongly indicated. Most common use of morphine is for pain relief. So, better to discuss in detail about indication of morphine in your brother 's case. If avoidable, please substitute it with Tramadol.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
