Yes bakerman we were told that at the beginning of the programme .Re: Britain’s Opioid Crisis BBC2 9 o clock Thursday
I was prescribed cocodamol the other week when I had kidney stone problems (see the Medical thread). I took 6 out of the 100 prescribed; the rest are back in their now tightly resealed box waiting for my next visit to the pharmacist so I can dispose of them properly.Re: Britain’s Opioid Crisis BBC2 9 o clock Thursday
So at a maximum 8 in 24 hours you'd been given a weeks' supply .Re: Britain’s Opioid Crisis BBC2 9 o clock Thursday
I find ibuprofen and codeine to be a fabulous medication. I'm not keen on co codamol. I've not been addicted to either. They are just great painkillers. The problem is when people are prescribed them for chronic pain. I think cannabis will be a good solution if they can ever get it up and running.Re: Britain’s Opioid Crisis BBC2 9 o clock Thursday
Re: Britain’s Opioid Crisis BBC2 9 o clock Thursday
Ibuprofen with codeine and co codamol are available OTC. I would never take Codeine on it's own. The level of codeine in OTC meds is not high. It's 12.8mg in ibuprofen codeine generic OTC tablets. When I had severe headaches ten years ago I was prescribed Solpadeine by the GP I could not tolerate it. That has 30mg codeine phosphate per tablet combined with paracetamol.
