There are various compounds related to sulfur, including sulfa, sulfates and sulfites. Variations of sulfur are some such allergens, but each type is different. Choosing between any given one is usually dependent on whether or not you are allergic to the compound.

Sulfur compounds derive from sulfur, an essential element to life. No person is allergic to sulfur in its pure form, but some might be allergic to the various forms of sulfur (i.e. sulfate, sulfite, sulfa). I'm not sure why companies don't just use sulfur and not have to worry about making different variations of it, but that is not a question I can answer.

This has nothing to do with Morphine itself, just what it is chemically compounded with in relation to people being allergic or not to sulfur or sulfate. Not many people are, so unless you do have an allergy to it, it's not anything to worry about. Hope this information helps!
