Common painkiller (7)

Ross

I think it could be either:

codeine

aspirin

'common painkiller' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for codeine that I've seen before include "Common painkiller" , "Painkiller derived from opium" , "Mild narcotic used as a pain-killer" , "An anodyne" , "Analgesic drug" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
