Hey there, i had an emergency appointment the other day with a doctor i don't normally see. Because i haven't responded to over the counter painkillers he prescribed me Co-Codamol, a mixture of Pracetemol and 60mg of Codeine, which i take about 3 times a day. Now i don't know if this particular doctor knew if i was on seroxat, cos i've heard mixed opinions on this. Some people have said i could get serotonin syndrome if i'm not careful. At this present time i'm taking 25mg of seroxat. Can anyone shed any light on this issue for me?

HI DOnkey,

I don't know the answer to this I'm afraid but if you're worried I would phone NHS 24 - as I see you're in the UK and ask for their advice. xx

I am not a doctor, but I seriously doubt it. That is not that high of a dose of codeine.

Hi there,,I'm not a doctor,,.
I take paxil 40mgs/day,,I changed from cipralex a while ago now,and it's working better.
I too take codeine,,but I take it regularly.
I take 3 atasol 30mgs/day,,sometimes less,,but I havn't ever noticed anything.
Maybe everyone's different though,,so if you're concerned about it,,you may feel better to ask a health care professional.
Best of luck,Steve
