Experiences with

Co-codamol

I have recently started taking Co Codamol. I have since been told that I have high blood pressure, which is new to me & I have noticed my cheeks feel as if they are on fire. Could the Co Codamol cause this? Has anyone else had similar.

Can you take these two meds together,co codamol works for me but they say you can't use it with sulfasalazine anybody on here used it thankyou

Hi, I have been taking co-codamol for about a year, as needed, for the pain I get with gallstones. But I have found that it reallly helps my fibromyalgia pain, especially with sleeping, which I find very difficult due to pain.

I have another condition for which I take Co-codamol 30/500 at night for the pain. My GP didn't say not to continue taking this but I have read that they shouldn't be taken together. Does anybody have information about this? Is there anybody taking these two medications together successfully?

Thankyou for your answers I have mobility issues with my back RA drugs don't work but co codamol helps maybe it relaxes muscles I take sulfasalazine for my RA but my back is driving me mad

GP px'd co-codamol for me , I don't normally do pain killers. Even taking full doses it didn't really help much. Asked GP for help changed prescription to 15/500 co-codamol, helps to get me off to sleep, but sleep still disturbed due to pain. I don't feel any better right now , maybe bit worse.

Tramaldan makes me sick, so does Co codamol. Blood pressure no bother just now but can’t get into another group . Thanks

Initially, my GP prescribed me Co-codamol (30/500mg), which I took for about 4 years at a dosage of 2 tablets a day. However, after learning that chronic use of paracetamol (one of the ingredients in Co-codamol) could damage the liver, I spoke to my GP about my concerns.

Can’t take co-codamol. Does anyone have experience of Naproxen? Thanks!

I everyone I've had pulsatile tinnitus on and off 2 months ago started getting headaches really bad especially aching in lower back skull by spine went for physio told were tension headaches been to A&E said No red flags so gave me some co codamol seem to do the trick but not ideal as side effects are

I was told I would have to stop taking Naproxen which I take when I have flare-ups with my arthritis and use co-codamol which I'm not convinced is going to work for me as pain relief Any help would be great. Paxim

I took co-codamol last night and squirmed for a couple hours but actually got over 6 hours sleep and slept in the same bed as my husband which was just as well as was in a hotel and have ended up on the floor or just pacing the room before. I felt so much better for getting some sleep.

Had to take 2 co-codamol at 5am but never helped. I’ve stated taking ferrous fumarate 322mg every other day. When I told the Dr I was coming off Ropinirole she said there wasn’t much else she could give me.

I take Co codamol for back and ankle pain but am finding it doesn't work as well..I've been on them for 3 years..any thoughts?

I have in my possession naproxen, ibuprofen, paracetamol and 2 different strength co codamol. Which should I use? 🤔

While there they discovered i had lung cancer and wouldn't operate and sent me home, I have got ulcer on foot, on the ankle bone, due to poor circulation. it been there for 9 months nearly and wont heal. i attend podietrist every week . the pain is horrific and doctor prescribed me co-codamol and

I already am treated for a fib (bisoprolol and warfarin) but I have taken (for years) one 10mg amitriptyline at night and two 8/500 co-codamol in the middle of the night. Is it ok to continue like this because they really do the trick? Many thanks

I take regular analgesia, paracetamol, Ibuprofen (not meant to but it helps so much) and when things are really bad I take the equivalent of Co-Codamol. I also wear compression gloves on and off which do help.

He allowed there is nothing he can do...I'm already taking co codamol (30/500) which they very generously prescribe two per day and I'm not allowed more opiates because it's a rheumy disease.

I am in a wheelchair and use crutches due to back pain treated with co codamol Is it a good assumption someone is messing with my records?
