Hi, this is just a general observation... I know some people on here have trouble with TEVA Levothyroxine products and recently I had knee replacement surgery. I was given codeine and paracetamol as painkillers for the two nights in hospital. Despite the 4 maximum doses I was given through the day/night (30mg codeine/1000mg paracetamol) on the second night I was in tears because I wasn't able to sleep for the pain. I was given an extra (different) medication and slept three hours solid! Bliss! On going home I happened to notice the manufacturer of the codeine was TEVA and as the meds had done little in hospital I decided to try a dose of two Solpadeine Max (red tablets) which amounted to slightly less of the codeine but same amount of paracetamol as the hospital dose. Whaddya know! I slept for two hours and felt ongoing painkilling effects for the next few hours.
So, was it the fact the medication was from TEVA that it didn't appear to have any effect?
Just curious.
Thanks for reading.
