Best Answer

yes but Tylenol three has codiene in it which means you need a prescription to obtain

Tylenol 3 really contains codeine, but that is not all. Tylenol 3 contains only 300mg of acetaminophen, almost half of 500mg in Extra Strength, Tylenol PM or Tylenol 500). It is very important, as the maximum dosage of acetaminophen must not be exceeded (1000mg at a time, or 4000mg during the day).
