Have you ever used the medicine called "222" and what is your opinion of it?

Question

It is sold in Canada.

Answer 1

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.

Answer 3

I love 222's and they're the only things that work for when I'm having severe back pain (I've been in a car accident) or serious sinus problems. However, as a previous answer said, they have codeine in them and are addictive so I only take once in a great whle when nothing else works.

Answer 5

One 222 is equivalent to one quarter of a T 3 w Codeine. That's one eighth of a T 4.
That's it! And if this is you believe me that managing my addiction has not been easy.
