Tylenol with Codeine

Hi r,

Tylenol #3 and generics in the United States contain 30 mg codeine and 300 mg acetaminophen (paracetamol). Not sure about Sweden - equivalent codeine or dihydrocodeine products probably contain differing amounts of paracetamol.

And, in the US, the equivalent product to Tylenol #3 containing aspirin instead of paracetamol would be 30 mg codeine and 325 mg aspirin.
