What Does Cp Mean But / Acetaminophen / Caff
(Newest replies first)

I have BUT/ACETAMINOPHEN/CAFF 50-300-40 CP. What do the last two letters "CP" mean? Does it mean capsules?

The ingredients listed in your abbreviation correspond with:

Butalbital 50 mg / Acetaminophen 300 mg / Caffeine 40 mg

I am inclined to agree with everyone on here that the "CP" could likely stand for Capsule ... However, there is a variation of this med that also contains Codeine Phosphate 30 mg in addition to what is listed above (NDC 0591-3220). And it could be purely coincidental that the abbreviation provided with your med just happens to correspond with that ingredient.

One way that we could deduce with more accuracy whether CP is referring to Capsule or to Codeine Phosphate is if you could share the color and imprint on your capsules? That would narrow down the exact drug & NDC code along with the list of ingredients (either including or excluding Codeine Phosphate). Are your capsules by chance red with 170 on them (NDC 0143-0170)?

Hello Grace,

Typically the abbreviation CP in the medical field refers to cerebral palsy but in reference to a pill itself it's fairly safe to assume that it could stand for capsule. Each company and pharmacy have their own way of labeling things so if it's truly of great concern to you simply ask your pharmacy or the manufacturer who labeled the bottle.
