Product description

A combination pain relief medicine designed to ease mild to moderate pain and reduce fever.

Co-codamol 8/500mg Tablets contain two active ingredients, codeine phosphate and paracetamol, which work together to provide effective relief when standard paracetamol alone has not been sufficient. Codeine belongs to a group of medicines called opioid analgesics, which act on the brain to relieve pain, while paracetamol helps to reduce both pain and raised temperature, offering a complementary approach to symptom management. This combined formulation is suitable for short-term use in the relief of conditions such as headache, migraine, dental pain, muscular aches, backache and period pain, helping you return to your usual daily activities with greater comfort.

When taken as directed, Co-codamol 8/500mg Tablets can provide dependable, short-term support for managing acute discomfort; however, as codeine can cause dependence if used continuously for more than three days, it is important to follow the dosage instructions carefully and seek medical advice if pain persists. Always ensure you do not take this product alongside other medicines containing paracetamol to avoid exceeding the recommended daily dose.
