Medically speaking hydrocodone is on par with codeine mg for mg. But speaking from my point of view, every reacts to every medication differently. Some people may be helped more with hydrocodone and others may be helped more by codeine. Codeine has a high incidence of allergic reactions.

ANOTHER ANSWERCodeine is rated just above aspirin. Hydrocodone (Vicodin) is a stronger narcotic pain reliever, and is more addictive. Right above hydrocodone is oxycodone (Percocet), which is a bit more addictive. All of the above cause constipation, the worst is probably codeine.

Can you take paracetamol with codeine phosphate?

Yes, that's all co-codamol is. I take prescribed co-codamol 30-500 per tablet. 30 codeine and 500 paracetamol. Never take more than 8 paracetamol a day and always leave it for 12hrs before you start your next eight. Be careful with the codeine as it is very addictive and too much will give you terrible constipation. Hope that helps


Why do phosphate ions elute before sulfate ions in ion chromatography?

They can actually elute in either order. It depends on your mobile phase. In a weakly basic solution, the phosphate ions are found more as HPO4 (2-) rather than PO4 (3-) and thus will elute before sulfate which is larger and has the same charge. In a strongly basic mobile phase, the PO4 (3-) ion will dominate, and will elute after the sulfate ion


How much is too much codeine phosphate?

Depends, do you want to relieve pain, or get high. Note that some people don't have the enzymes to break down codeine into morphine so codeine will have no effect on them, others have less enzymes or more enzymes, plus people have different sensitivities and body weights. For pain (prescription) the usual adult dose is 30mg every 4 to 6 hours. This is sometimes as low or high as 15mg or 60mg (every 4-6h). In other countries (like Canada) codeine is sold over the counter in lower dosages, there you might take about 15mg for a headache (comes in 8mg pills). For abuse, lower effects usually start at 60mg. People will often go up from there but its not safe to ingest a higher dose without trying less first. You should take 60mg (MAXIMUM) first and then after two hours if you don't feel the effect you can take more (like another 30 to 60 mg). Above about 300mg, codeine's effect maxes out because of your bodies limited ability to convert it to morphine. It is possible to take other drugs or certain foods to increase the conversion thus making the effect at any dose stronger. It is possible to die from codeine and it can have serious side effects, do not use it any other way the oral, read prescribing information, do not use alcohol or other sedatives with codeine. -Dr.Z

Does hydroco have codeine?

if by hydroco you mean hydrocodone, then yes and no. Hydrocodone is a semi-synthetic opioid that is made FROM codeine. Hydrocodone does not metabolize into codeine frome what ive read. If you are allergic to codeine then you will probably be allergic to hydrocodone too. If youre trying to pass a UA then you should be ok as most urine tests that test for opiates only test for morphine and codeine; neither of which are metabolites of hydrocodone. If you're looking to treat pain, then keep in mind that hydrocodone is stronger than codeine.
