Tylenol with Codeine #3 (acetaminophen/ codeine): Effective for mild pain, not very effective for more moderate to severe pain.

Tylenol with Codeine #3 (acetaminophen/ codeine): I suffer from chronic hip pain for several years now and have been prescribed a variety of narcotics to manage my pain. I must say that Tylenol #3 (2 pills every 4-6 hours as needed) provides enough relief to get me through the bad days and not feel "doped up" so I can still function at work.

Tylenol with Codeine #3 (acetaminophen/ codeine): I had oral surgery and my doctor prescribed me this and it didn't touch the pain at all.

Tylenol with Codeine #3 (acetaminophen/ codeine): Does not work well for severe pain plus it takes too long to start working.

Tylenol with Codeine #4 (acetaminophen/ codeine): I use Tylenol #4 for moderate abdominal pain caused from endometriosis. This medication doesn't completely stop the pain but makes it easier to function normally. The best thing about it it starts working so quickly after I take it. Other medications I have tried like Vicodin does not work as quickly or effectively.

Aceta w/ Codeine (acetaminophen/ codeine): I take Acetaminophen w/Codeine #3. It helps a good deal with my back pain. I also take it with Carisoprodol which also helps a good deal!

Tylenol with Codeine (acetaminophen/ codeine): This is a miracle medicine. One dose and my migraines disappear. After 15 years of actually being a test patient for every new medicine on the migraine market, this is the only thing that has worked.

Tylenol with Codeine #3 (acetaminophen/ codeine): Just took 1 300-30mg as a replacement for the Davorcet which was withdrawn recently. I used that sparingly and ran out a month ago. I have rheumatoid arthritis, "fibro", osteoarthritis among other health problems so I am in some sort of constant pain daily. My Doctor is very conservative about giving me prescription pain medicine so I am to cut in half and take no more than a grand total of 1 pill a day. Not sure he understands my pain but I have to follow his orders. I have to save this for my most severe days and when I absolutely have to get things done. Use Excedrin migraine and Advil on other days.

Tylenol with Codeine (acetaminophen/ codeine): This stops the pain but constipates the user. Experienced nausea, racing hearbeat and drowsiness with this medication

Tylenol with Codeine #3 (acetaminophen/ codeine): I have suffered from chronic joint pain my entire life. After trying almost every non narcoticoption there is, I finally was prescribed Tylenol #3. I had been given Vicodin in the past by an NP (despite not really wanting it), and had not found it to be effective. The codeine though has made a huge difference. I haven't had any of the negative effects with it (stomach pain, dizziness, etc) but have gotten a huge amount of pain relief. It isn't extremely strong, it won't take me from a 10 to a 0, but it will get me to a bearable 1 or 2.

acetaminophen/codeine: Dulled the toothache after my root canal infection got fixed. Did NOT take it completely away. I couldn't eat either. Made me too sleepy to drive and, possibly, grouchy (that could have been from the procedure too). Easy to use.

Tylenol with Codeine #3 (acetaminophen/ codeine): I was given this in the hospital after giving birth. It only dulled the pain. Still couldn't walk, turn over, etc. The sleepy side effect was good; it helped me relax.

Tylenol with Codeine #3 (acetaminophen/ codeine): I was prescribed this for abdominal pain after having a baby. Keep in mind I have a very high pain tolerance, but this helped me a lot. I was in a pretty good amount of pain, and although it didn't take away all the pain, I was able to get up and take care of my newborn and 3 year old toddler. Also I have been breastfeeding and sometimes my newborn vomits. I'm not sure if it's the medicine or that she has just been drinking too fast

acetaminophen/codeine: I have a terrible toothache and the only thing this medicine did was make me a little tired. I am going to the dentist tomorrow but for now I am still in pain.

Tylenol with Codeine #3 (acetaminophen/ codeine): I use this for my pancreatitis, NASH, and inflamed spleen. I have other health issues as well. Currently this works far better than Vicodin, or Darvocet. Those two did nothing for me with the pain, this at least takes the edge off, though. At times it does make me sleepy and drowzy at work.

Tylenol with Codeine #3 (acetaminophen/ codeine): I have broken bone. This helps a lot with moderate pain and makes that go away completely in a short amount of time, but the more serious pain is always barely relieved. All in all, it helps a lot.

acetaminophen/codeine: I have been taking this medicine now for over 13 years. I used to take as much as 9 #4 a day. I now take only 4 pills a day. I get very bad pains in my feet because of being a diabetic, I have stopped getting pain by not waiting until the pain starts. It helps me sleep and most of the time it prevents the pain from starting.

acetaminophen/codeine: I have to take this following surgery to remove hardware from my ankle, I thought that it would work and it simply did not. I don't even notice any difference after taking it, except maybe that I would like to throw up. I took a full dose and it never kicked in at all, I should be able to walk but due to the pain I can't even move. I really need something stronger, and this is coming from someone who has a really high pain tolerance.

Tylenol with Codeine #3 (acetaminophen/ codeine): I am in severe pain. I believe I need 2 root canals. I went to ER and my doctor prescribed Tylenol 3. The dosage is 1 every 4 hours. Please believe me when I say the pain has not subsided AT ALL. I do not even feel sleepy. Even that would be some relief. I contacted the hospital about this and I have to go back to ER to be re-evaluated and pay another 800. The earliest I can be seen by my dentist is in another 14 days.
