But Apap Caf Codein

ITOOK3 CAP. BEFORE BED TIME AND 2 THE NEXT MORNING MY HEAD STILL HURT AND I HAD LOST ALL WANTING TO EAT, I FORCED MY SELF TO EAT AND THIS MORNING I WOKE UP AND COULDENT SEE OUT OUT OF MY LEFT EYE, AND IT IS STILL THE SAME WAY AT THIS TIME OF DAY HERT IN MY HEAD HAS LET UP . ## Well, you didn't list the amounts of each that are in the pills that you took, but I've no doubt taking that many was too much. Have you seen a doctor, yet? The ingredient in these that is especially toxic, if you take too much, is the Acetaminophen and you may have cause permanent damage to your eye, as well as other organs. Exceeding the recommended amount of Acetaminophen in a day can even be fatal, so it is not a risk worth taking. Rather than doubling or tripling up on medications, if you are experien...

is it safe to take a but/apap/caf codeinecap if the expiration date is 01-18-2012 ## Hi mary, My answer to your question would be yes, it is safe to take this specific medication past it's due date. According to a Harvard Medical School family health article, except in rare cases (i.e. tetracycline), there is little chance of danger due to taking medications even up to 15 years beyond their expiration date. At worst, it may have lost a bit of potency, but the only way to find out precisely would be to have it lab tested. Source: health.harvard.edu/fhg/updates/update1103a.shtml I hope this info helps to shed some light on the topic of expired medication :)

Are these two the same? One says butalbital/acetaminophen/caff tabs the other says but/apap/caf codeine the first one in a pill white round v on one side 3220 on other side the next one is a cap. Blue and white with 3220 on the white part ## Hi Bri, From what I could gather, the blue and white capsule marked with WATSON on the blue half and 3220 on the white half, reportedly contains 325mgs of Acetaminophen + 50mg of Butalbital + 40mg of Caffeine + 30mg of Codeine. The other pill you mentioned with a marking of V 3220 doesn't seem to exist when I go to look it up. However I did come across a very similar white round pill imprinted with a V on one side and 2355 on the other. This particular tablet contains 325mgs of Acetaminophen + 50mg of Butalbital + 40mg of Caffeine; but does NOT ...

is hydroco/apap 5-325 mg stronger than BUTALBITAL, ACETAMINOPHEN, CAFFEINE, AND CODEINE tablets i have BUTALBITAL, ACETAMINOPHEN, CAFFEINE, AND CODEINE tablets for migraine headaches. I had a very bad fall and hurt my arm,shoulder and knee. they gave me hydroco/apap 5-325 mg for the pain. Which of the two is stronger for pain relief? ## Hello, Ann! How are you? Codeine is actually very weak, so for that type of pain, you'll most likely be better off with the Hydrocodone that they've prescribed, it is much stronger and better able to handle the pain from an injury, such as that which occurred due to your fall. This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Is ...

I'm going to have a stress test tomorrow & im not supposed to take Fiorinol does hydroco/APAP Tab 10-325 ## Hello, Pat! How are you? No, the active ingredients are Hydrocodone and Acetaminophen. The FDA classifies it as a narcotic analgesic, so it carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with?

BUT/APAP/CAF w/ CODEIN usually provides migraine relief, but too often with nausea, vomiting. Any recommendations to help w/ nausea/vomiting? ## Have you consulted your doctor? The Codeine is a narcotic and they are very well known for causing nausea and vomiting. It can sometimes be mitigated by making sure you don't take it on an empty stomach, but you should talk to your doctor to discover what would be the best solution for you to use.

This is a combination of a narcotic anagesic containing 15 mg of dihydrocodeine, 325 mg of acetaminophen (APAP) and 50 mg of caffeine. Dyhydrocodeine is about one to two times more potent as Codeine, but it is not as potent as Hydrocodone. A typical does of 30 mg of dihydrocodeine is about equal to 45-60 mg of Codeine. Duhydrocodeine is both a Schedule II controlled substance by itself and a Schedule III controlled substance when compounded with APAP or Asprin (ASA). It is rarely used in America and for reasons unbeknown; nonetheless it's low abuse potential allows it to be sold OTC in Europe as an anagesic in strengths of 7.49 mg dihydrocodeine compounded with 500 mg of APAP. US LAW: If sold in the US this would be a Schedule III Controlled Substance It is also available by prescri...

I took butalbital / apap / caffeine (50-325-40mg) on Saturday and had a drug test today. Will it show up or how long does it take to leave the system? ## There are 2 types of Firoicet. One has CODEINE... one does not. The one without codeine typically is a WHITE tablet... While the name brand full pill is a grey blue red capsule with CODEINE written on it. ## I took butalbital a month ago and have a hair follicle Monday. Will I be positive that day?
