'''Codeine/paracetamol''', also called '''codeine/acetaminophen''' and '''co-codamol''', is a [[compound analgesic]], comprising [[codeine phosphate]] and [[paracetamol]] (acetaminophen). Codeine/paracetamol is used for the relief of mild to moderate [[pain]] when paracetamol or [[non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug]]s (NSAIDs; such as [[ibuprofen]], [[aspirin]], and [[naproxen]]) alone do not sufficiently relieve symptoms.<ref name="Boots PIL" /><ref name="Co-Codamol SmPC" />
