It should say on the packaging or the GP/chemist should have advised you. The above link covers it I think.

What was it prescribed for and what does the label on the prescription say?

I have some but can't find the leaflet to look but as weeal shows, there is a load of stuff online.

If in any doubt check with your GP or pharmacist.

I take them for my back, 1 or 2 every 4 hours, no more than 8 per day.

Try and get hold of some medo-codeine, works for my neck

[jen78]

I think that is co-codamol everton.

I have it for pain as I can't take oral inflammatories, got myself some devils claw today though so will see how that goes.

No medo codeine comes in a capsule

[Ethel]

Medocodine is co-codamol, which is paracetamol with codeine.

"Medocodene capsules contain two active ingredients, paracetamol and codeine phosphate. This combination of medicines is often referred to as co-codamol. (NB. Co-codamol is also available without a brand name, ie as the generic medicine.)"

The correct dose for your medicine is 1 or 2 tablets every 4 to 6 hours, with 8 tablets per day as the maximum
