Tylenol #4 is tylenol with codeine and is prescribed for pain. Usual dose is one pill every 4-6 hours. Tylenol #4 has 60 mg of codeine, while Tylenol #3 has 30 mg of codeine. If the pills make you nauseous, try breaking one in half...voila....you have a Tylenol 3.

• Tylenol is a pain reliever and a fever reducer.
• Tylenol is used to treat many conditions such as headache, muscle aches, arthritis, backache, toothaches, colds, and fevers.
• Tylenol may also be used for purposes other than those listed in this medication guide.
Never take more Tylenol than is directed. The maximum amounts for adults are 1 gram (1000 mg) per dose and 4 grams (4000 mg) per day. Taking more Tylenol could be damaging to the liver. If you drink more than three alcoholic beverages per day, talk to your doctor before taking Tylenol.
• Use Tylenol for up to 3 days for fever or up to 10 days for pain (or up to 5 days to treat a child's pain). If the symptoms do not improve, or if they get worse, stop using Tylenol and see a doctor.

Correct, tylenol #4 has codeine in it...if it does indeed make you nausated, which is very common in many people, eat something when you take it.
