Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is a prescription required to buy Co-codamol 30/500mg in the UK?

Yes. While lower-strength Co-codamol (8/500mg) is available over-the-counter, 30/500mg is a high-strength formulation classed as a prescription-only medicine (POM) in the UK.

Why is Co-codamol 30/500mg restricted to short-term use?

Because it contains 30mg of Codeine, prolonged use can cause physical tolerance, dependence, and severe withdrawal symptoms. Always follow your clinician’s directions.
