I just got this information from Wikpidia ~"The brand is primarily marketed and sold in the United Kingdom, other parts of Europe, Australia, and New Zealand." And "It contains 12.8 mg of codeine and 200 mg of ibuprofen"
That being said, it is being sold illegally to you. You can get into a lot of trouble buying it online. Some of these websites say they are in the US, but are not.
You will be much safer going to your doctor or a doctor that is able to help you. You should not have to live with any sort of pain. The medication you bought is not legal in the US.
Thanks for the quick response to the question. I actually ordered from a US drug store and this was considered an OTC. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't doing anything illegal. The name of the OTC medicine is Nurofen Plus.
Thanks again for the info.
Hello and Welcome to the Pain Mangement Forum. I am sorry that you are having breast pain. Please discuss this with your physician. He/she should be willing to prescribe something legal for your pain.
NEVER purchase any drug from an unknown on line pharmacy let alone a narcotic. As RunningMom said it is a felony. Many of these online pharmacies are outside the US. They are not regulated and you never know what they may be sending you. Cancel the order immediately as RM said.
Good Luck to You,

In the United States it is illegal to order any prescription medication online without a a Rx from your doctor. I would cancel that order RIGHT AWAY! I believe it's a felony and you can get a major fine and maybe prision time.
The best thing for you to do is see your doctor and expalin you are in a lot of pain. There are good doctors out there that are able to help you. Good luck.
