Can I take Co-codamol and Hydroxycobalamin together?

Why this happens

Co-codamol (a combination of paracetamol and codeine) and hydroxycobalamin (Vitamin B12) are processed by the body through different pathways. They do not interfere with each other's absorption, metabolism, or effectiveness.

What you should do

You can continue to take both medications as prescribed by your doctor. Always follow the dosage instructions on the packaging for co-codamol, as it contains codeine which can be addictive if used for more than three days without medical advice.
