It is sold in Canada.
Answers:
Ingredients: 375mg Acetylsalicylic Acid, 15mg caffeine & 8mg codeine.
Aspirin with Codeine is an OTC product sold in Canada & is used to treat mild to severe pain. It contains two drugs: Acetylsalicylic Acid and codeine. Acetylsalicylic Acid, is used to reduce pain and fever. Codeine, a narcotic analgesic, is used to treat pain that is moderate to severe. People who are allergic to Tylenol can take Aspirin with Codeine.
Aspirin with Codeine contains a narcotic (codeine) and, even if taken in prescribed amounts, can cause physical and psychological addiction if taken for a long periods of time. Addiction may be more of a risk for a person who has been addicted to alcohol or drugs. Be sure to follow your doctor's instructions carefully when taking Aspirin with Codeine, or any other drugs that contain a narcotic.
Everything that is said about name brand Aspirin 222 w/ codeine holds true for the generic version. The only difference is that you save a great deal of money by purchasing the generic version.
