I found a pack of tabs that says codeine phosphate and I'm going to take 120mg but I looked it up and people say that it can cause liver damage because of paracetamol mixed with it. does it contain paracetamol?
What EXACTLY does it say on the pack? I'm prescribed codeine phosphate tablets 30mg. They are little tiny buggers. The ones with paracetamol look like a paracetamol tablet if you get me?
codeine phosphate will not have any paracetamol, just lactose or something. Its just codeine so you wont mess up your liver. However, please read the packet! We cant tell you for sure without seeing it.
ditto ^^. if you pills are like little tiny things then you can be almost a sure bet that its just codeine. there's just no way would could fit half a gram of APAP into one of those pills.
the codeine/apap pills will look like circular paracetamol tablets.
I think my pills are marked CP 30. Sometimes they are marked APSW (or something like that) sometimes they are not marked at all.
