Aspirin-Codeine Oral

Check the labels on all your medicines (such as cough-and-cold products, pain relievers/fever reducers) because they may contain aspirin or aspirin-related drugs (NSAIDs such as ibuprofen or naproxen) or ingredients that may cause drowsiness. However, if your doctor has directed you to take low-dose aspirin for heart attack or stroke prevention (usually at dosages of 81-325 milligrams a day), you should continue taking it unless your doctor instructs you otherwise. Ask your doctor or pharmacist for more details.

This product may interfere with certain laboratory tests (including blood amylase levels, urine glucose levels, urine 5-HIAA levels, urine VMA levels), possibly causing false test results. Make sure laboratory personnel and all your doctors know you use this drug.

This document does not contain all possible interactions. Therefore, before using this product, tell your doctor or pharmacist of all the products you use. Keep a list of all your medications with you, and share the list with your doctor and pharmacist.
