Sometimes they are combined, but if the bottle lists only "codeine sulphate," there's no paracetamol in it. If you aren't sure, please consult the prescriber or the pharmacist/druggist/chemist.

Can you take codeine phosphate and paracetamol on the same day?

Yes, you can take paracetamol (Tylenol) with codeine AS LONG AS the prescription does not say "APAP". APAP means that it already contains paracetamol which can increase risk of overdose and death.As always with Codeine Phosphate, do not drive or operate heavy machinery after taking it. You may need to increase your intake of clear fluids, as Codeine is notorious for causing constipation. You should take this medication with food as taking on a empty stomach can cause upset stomachs. Also, do not take codeine for long periods of time, it is a narcotic and can be habit forming.With Tylenol (paracetamol/acetaminophen/APAP) do not consume more than 4g (4000 mg) or 8 - extra strength (500 mg) tablets in any 24 hour period.

Can you take naproxen and codeine together?

Yes that would be fine, but you may want to just take more of the codeine. Just look at the prescription, these drugs usually come with 325 or 500 mg of acetaminophen, or the second number (ex, 5/500 APA the first number is the mg of Codeine and the second is the acetaminophen content. Don't exceed 3000 mg of acetaminophen as this is very hard on the heart and liver!
