I know I'll get negative ratings for this; but, it should be fine as long as you're taking the medication as directed and not taking over the limit.
In the U.S., that particular medication is called Tylenol 3 (acetaminophen + codeine)--which my Ob/Gyn actually prescribed for me when I had migraines starting from about 20 weeks.
Here's a link to the list of meds my doctor said were ok to take(you may have to look them up to translate into real English):

if your throat is sore you should go to the after care office or if you can`t take the pain, go to the ER they can give you something, You could have strep throat which is highly contagious and can kill you if it spreads, I had a teachers who sister die from strep throat. So please if it hurts like hell go to the ER.

Do not take anything without talking to your Dr. first....you never take anything without an ok from the Dr....Just call the office and ask if its ok! Good Luck!

I don't know but I would call your doctors after hours number & ask them just to be sure. You never can be too careful.
