Is there any difference between dihydrocodeine and co-codamol ?

Hello thesinger

In terms of what they do there is probably only a slight difference in pain killing strength.

Both Codeine and Dihydrocodeine are weak opioids .

Co-codamol is made up of Paracetamol and Codeine.

Hope that helps.

Best wishes
