    Co Codamol tablets can be taken up to 8 in 24 hours maximum. Usually the dose is two tablets 3 times a day. If pain is relieved with a lower dose take the lowest dose which relieves the pain.

      Is Co Codamol codeine?  I use it sparingly for a bad headaches, nowadays to reduce my reliance on aspirin, but it always makes me feel a bit "spaced out".  It tends to numb the pain, but not really make it go away.

      Hello Anhaga, sorry for delay, but yes Co codamol is Paracetamol with Codeine in combination. I Don't know, but you may find Ibuprofen Tablets

      200mg three or four times a day alleviates the pain and then you can reduce your Co Codamol dosage.

      Hi Michael.  I hardly ever use the aspirin (or acetaminophen) + codeine.  I understand ibuprofen is not very good for one so have never taken it.  Prefer aspirin as I understand it, and only use acetaminophen when taking aspirin would be a bad idea for my stomach.  Had bad experiences with naproxyn in the past so I'm careful with analgesics. rolleyes
