In my opinion, the prescription opiate ladder is -
1 - Tylenol 3 (Codine/Acetaminophen)
2 - Vicodin (5mg Hydrocodone-325/500mg Acetaminophen )
3 - Vicodin (7.5mg Hydro - 500/750 Ace.)
4 - Vicodin/Norco (10mg Hydro - 325 Ace)
5 - Percoset - (5mg Oxycodone - 500 Ace)
Of course Percoset comes in multiple sizes... like vicodin. Then you have your straight opiates, Morphine/Oxycontin etc that come in sizes simmilar to the active opiate in these, just without the Acetaminophen/Asprin/Ibuprophen that come with.
No, Tylenol 500 would be stronger than Tylenol 325. The ending numbers represent their milligrams. Tylenol 500 is Tylenol 500mg. Tylenol 325 is Tylenol 325mg.
Significantly stronger. These drugs are not in the same class. Be sure to follow your doctor's instructions. You might get Tylenol III with codeine, but the oxycodone is stronger than the codeine.
Tylenol 3 contains 300 mg of acetaminophen and 30 mg of codeine, making it significantly stronger than 12.8 mg of codeine phosphate alone. While codeine phosphate is a form of codeine, the dosage in Tylenol 3 is higher, providing more potent analgesic effects. Therefore, Tylenol 3 is generally considered stronger due to its higher codeine content and the added analgesic effect of acetaminophen.
Hydrocodone is 6-8 Times stronger than Codeine. So it deprends how much you take of either drug. For example: 10mg of hydrocodone is equal to 60-80mg of codeine (which would be approx. 2-3 Tylenol #3 (Tylenol with 30mg of codeine and 325mg of Tylenol).
Vicodin is stronger than Tylonol 3. Vicodin contains Hydrocodone which is a stronger opiate than the drug called Codeine, which is in Tylonol 3.
Lenoltec, which contains codeine and acetaminophen, is generally considered stronger than Tylenol 3, which contains acetaminophen and codeine as well, but in lower amounts. Ketorolac, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), is also stronger in terms of pain relief as it is used for moderate to severe pain, especially post-surgery. Therefore, ketorolac is typically more potent than both Lenoltec and Tylenol 3 when it comes to pain management.
Tylenol 3, just as the name suggests, is a level 3 narcotic. Oxycodone is a level 2 narcotic. This means that when comparing the 2, oxycodone will stay in the body longer, have stronger effects, and be much more addictive.
NO..percocet contains oxycodone/Tylenol(acetaminophen) and codeine/Tylenol is a weaker pain medication. They are both opiates..... Codeine is used to treat mild to moderate pain and is also a very good cough medicine...
Morphine contains the chemical cetrimonium. Cetrimonium can harm the part of the brain that makes you sexually aroused.
Tylenol 2 and Tylenol 3 are both prescription medications that contain acetaminophen, but they differ in their codeine content. Tylenol 2 contains 15 mg of codeine, while Tylenol 3 contains 30 mg of codeine. This difference in codeine dosage makes Tylenol 3 generally stronger and more effective for pain relief compared to Tylenol 2. Both medications are used to treat moderate pain, but the choice between them depends on the severity of the pain and patient-specific factors.
I don't thnik so, or else why would it be "Children's Tylenol", and wouldn't FDA recall that? I mean it could be possible, but that would only be if Tylenol for adults is really weak.
Its the asprin version of the original Tylenol 3
