Indicații terapeutice:

Acetaminophen and codeine phosphate tablets are indicated for the relief of mild to moderately severe pain. Codeine-containing products are contraindicated for postoperative pain management in children who have undergone tonsillectomy and/or adenoidectomy. This product should not be administered to patients who have previously exhibited hypersensitivity to codeine or acetaminophen. Acetaminophen and Codeine Phosphate tablets are classified as a Schedule III controlled substance. Codeine can produce drug dependence of the morphine type and, therefore, has the potential for being abused.
