has anyone had side affects from co-codamol?
has anyone had side affects from co-codamol?
it made me tired but other than that no x
thats the paracetamol and codeine painkillers.
they work really well, very good at taking away pain.
codeine tends to upset my tummy so i take it wit food.
I tend to my break my tablets in half and take them in halfs rather than a full one at a time.
if i'm still in too much pain after 30 minutes I'll take the other half.
I'm just weird like that.
They will get rid of your anxiety big time, well they did with me, I found I feel very relaxed afterwards, and sometimes sleepy.

i found these increased my anxiety- made me feel like i was choking BUT it was only because i was worrying and the choking feeling was caused by anxiety not by the meds. i was given these after i got hit on the head with a stone :( was so painful for a week lol.
I have been taking these for years, the main side effects I get (and my girlfriend and other members of family) are:
Constipation
Sleepiness
If you havent taken them before then only try taking half at first, see how it goes.
Hi, the main side effect is drowsyness and constipation. They are highly addictive. If you take them for longer than 2 weeks, they can produce aches and pains as you withdraw, hence you take more, and the cycle begins. They also contain a lot of sodium, so those with high blood pressure should be aware of this.
I can't take them cos I am asthmatic

Constipation ..................................... yeuch
My dr told me yesterday that taking them regularly for a week or so could produce a "codiene" headache. When you buy them, they always say dont use for more than 3 days. They are very good for pain - but they do not improve anxiety other than take the pain away that is making you anxious.
All I really need is love, but a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt! (peanuts)
Constipation and sore tummy - they do take pain away, though not worth it for me.
