Ok, which one is better/stronger? I was on cocodamol 15, then got changed to codydramol, which doesn't seem to be alot different, is one stronger than the other? Just a quickie before I go back to the docs later!!

They say that talking to yourself is a sign of mental illness. So I talk to the cats instead.

It could just be the generic version of cocodamol and cheaper.0

Check the ingredients on the back, both sound like codeine plus one other.Please do not quote spam as this enables it to 'live on' once the spam post is removed.

I find codydramol makes me very spaced out, cocodamol not so.
They're both paracetamol, codyramol contains dihyrdocodiene which is stronger than the codiene in cocodamolAccept your past without regret, handle your present with confidence and face your future without fear0 -
If you don't get free prescriptions you can buy generic version of cocodamol much,much cheaper than paying the prescription charge.
Also be aware that these drugs are very addictive if taken long-term.Father Ted: Now concentrate this time, Dougal. These

The over the counter ones are not very strong tho. I was on them before I went back to docs.
I understand they are addictive, been on them before, but don't have much of a choice at the moment, didn't have any trouble last time round Be who you are, say what you feel, those who mind don't matter, those who matter don't mind.They say that talking to yourself is a sign of mental illness.
