Codeine is making me itch badly. Overdose? What do I do?!


Question: Codeine is making me itch badly. Overdose.? What do I do.?
Hey all.
I apoloize in advance for such a ridiculous question...

Earlier tonight I took two Tylenol 4's for some knee problems I am having at the moment. One hadn't worked earlier so I took two tonight, 10 hours later. Nasically I have 120mh of codeine in me, and I am extremely itchy. It hurts. My stomach is sick... Am I overdosing.? Is it possibly just a reaction.? I have no way to a clinic or out patients right now... In a few hours I will, but for now... Is there anything I can do.? I'm so sick and the itch is torture.Health Question & Answer


Answers:
I don't think you overdosed. You can ingest 4 grams of Tylenol in 24 hours safely. You can take some Benadryl for the itching...it's just a side effect of narcotics. Relax..you should be fine.Health Question & Answer

Just a mild allergic reaction. Just wait it out, or take an allergy medication. Health Question & Answer

you're not overdosing, counter it w/benadryl...Health Question & Answer

you are OK, the itching is a "regular" side effect.
