Wow, I wonder why in the US T-3's have 30mg of codeine but in Canada they only have 8mg. That's a big difference. Maybe that's why they didn't help much.

The bottle said to take 1 tablet 3xday for 5 days. My doctor ALWAYS prescribes more pills than I need.[/QUOTE]

I think you misread my post.

T-3's in US have 30mg of codeine in them. In the US we do not have a tablet with codeine at all that is OTC.

The OTC codeine in Canada that does not require an RX has 8mg of codeine in them.

Are you sure you know what your RX in Canada has in it? It should say on the label of the RX or you can ask your pharmacist for clarification.

In the US T2=15mg codeine and 325mg of Tylenol
T3= 30mg of codeine and 325mg of Tylenol
T4= 60mg of codeine and 325mg of Tylenol-- All are RX only.
