Question 1

tell me about pain medication like aspirin and codeine?

Accepted Answer

Dose dependent: Aspirin is good for mild pain, treats fever, and acts as an anti-inflammatory agent when used chronically. As the dose is increased, there is progressive issue with upset stomach and peptic ulceration. Codeine is good for moderate pain. As the dose is increased, it causes nausea and constipation.

Accepted Answer

2 cautions: One must not exceed 4, 000 mg of tylenol (acetaminophen) in 24 hours. You don't mention what strength of medication you're taking or how often you take it, so i can't comment on the "3". But if you stay <4, 000 mg, you're okay. Avoid prolonged use of Aspirin and tylenol (acetaminophen) because the combination can cause kidney damage if taken over the long term. ("analgesic nephropathy").
