right i have co-codamol 8/500mg and some nurofen plus which is 200/12.8
I'm taking co-codamol at the moment, and its numbing the pain a fair bit, but its not completely gone...
which of the two is stronger?
and what would happen if i took 2 of each? ____________________ follow my racing season

Well if you wanna know which has more codeine in, that'll be the nurofen with 12.8mg versus 8mg in the co-codomol.
You can take paracetamol and nurofen together, but I dont know what the safe limit is for codeine, and as these products both contain it, you should have a quick google...
Taking 2 of each would give you 1g of paracetamol, 400mg ibuprofen and 41.6mg of codeine..  ____________________ "I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked for me." Hunter S Thompson

Ibuprofen is an anti inflammatory and reduces swelling.
Co-Codamol is purely for pain relief and can if your doc allows depending on any medical problems be taken along side the Ibuprofen.
However do not take other paracetamol medication at the same time as co-codamol (including things like Lemsip) as that is bad mmkayyy.
For me ibuprofen was better than co-codamol but it varies from person to person.
Oh, and codine is well known for bunging the bung hole up if taken for extended periods. ____________________ Andy Sez....

I was taking 60mg of Codeine every 4 hours when I was just 16, so I doubt 41.6mg will do you much harm.
Although the Doctor did throw a fit when he realised I'd been taking that much, apparently I was too young! .
As for taking codeine, paracetamol and nurofen together, that's all good. Anti-inflammatory and an opioid narcotic is all sun and daises. . ____________________ "Four wheels move the body, two wheels move the soul."

Codeine is also habit forming, so don't get too used to them.
If you're taking 24mg of codeine, I'd pop in past the chemist for a bottle of syrup of figs tomorrow. You're going to need it. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen. That's when you find out everything you want to know.”

I read you need to take about 120g of codeine to feel any kind of high 40g wont do much then... ____________________ follow my racing season

i've had 60g today...  |
60 grammes ? I hope you you mean milligrammes... cos to get that ammount from co-codomol you'd need to take 7500 tablets, which is 3.75kg of paracetemol, and an achey hand will be the least of ya worries  ____________________ "I hate to advocate drugs, alcohol, violence or insanity to anyone, but they've always worked for me."
