Co Codamol Effervescent Tablets are a combination of the two active ingredients paracetamol and codeine phosphate. These two ingredients combine together to create a pain relief medicine that works for short term treatment of mild to moderate pain.
The first ingredient, Paracetamol, is used to treat any aches and pains, as well as reducing a high fever. The second ingredient, Codeine, belongs to a group of medicines known as opioids which also help to relieve pain.
Co Codamol Effervescent Tablets are usually taken when everyday painkillers such as aspirin, ibuprofen or paracetamol alone are not providing enough relief.
