What is the difference between Hydorcodine 5-325 and acetyisalicylic acid 325 mg, codine 8mg, Caffine 15 mg.  (A. C. & C.)

[Dr. Kokil Mathur]

Hi!
Hydorcodine 5-325 contains 5 mg of Hydrocodone Bitartrate (an opiod analgesic) and 325 mg of Acetaminophen. The other pain killer contains acetyisalicylic acid 325 mg (aspirin), coedine 8mg (opiod analgesic), Caffeine 15 mg (also used as pain medication). So, both are pain medications, in combinations, with ACC likely to have a more sustained pain relief. Take care!
