> Yes you're right we have Panadeine and Nurofen. Unfortunately I've never noticed anything when I take them. They can't even take away a headache.
Yes here downunder you can get OTC:
-Codeine #2 (USA), called Panadeine+ =15mgs Codeine + 500mgs Paracetamol.
-Nurofen Plus=13mgs Codeine + 200mgs Ibu. They have recently changed the formulation after health ministry requests, because too many people found out the two sides were simply stuck together, and would split them, therefore taking a large dose of Codeine only, i'm sure to the companies reluctance-and sales.
