#1 sign you're stressed on a shopping trip with

your kid...

...at the end of the trip (2 stores) you stop at the pharmacy counter, ask for

tylenol with codeine, and swig a handful down with a bottle of water grabbed

from the cooler while you wait in line to pay.

Get tylenol with codeine without a prescription? Codeine is a script-only

med here. Not sure if it's a controlled substance or not...I don't think it

is, because I didn't have to show my driver's liscence to get my cough

syrup...

What's the difference?

Tylenol is just acetomenaphine here.

I think tylenol 3 is with codeine & it is script

i live in the wrong country.........jacquie, is it true that you

don't have to pay for healthcare there? we pay out 200 a month for

family coverage (is that right tracy? about 200??)

Do what? Take the tylenol one, or take it before I've paid for it?

I CAN take it -- it's the only over-the-counter pain relief left to me (with

or without codeine). And I am a frequent flyer at the pharmacy, so I take

liberties. :-)

We can get tylenol one from the pharmacist without a script, but tylenol two

and three are script-only.

We have tylenol and tylenol extra strength. You can buy these off the

shelf.

Tylenol 1, or store brand aceteminophen with codeine, is available from

behind the pharmacy counter without a prescription, but you need to ask for

it.

Tylenol 2 and 3 have more codeine in them than Tylenol 1. You need

prescriptions for those, and they only differ in the mgs of codeine.

No, we don't pay for health care. Well, we do -- with our taxes. Ontario

sales taxes alone are 15%. BUT...

-I need to book my doctor's appointments a month in advance because of a

doctor shortage

-the nearest ER to us closes at 10pm every night because it doesn't have

enough funding to pay enough doctors to staff it 24/7, so we have to drive

at least half an hour to be seen in emerg if we need it.

-when my tibia and fibula were both broken in half, the EMTs had to stop at

a softball game and tend a case of heat exhaustion while I waited in the

back of the ambulance, because there aren't enough ambulances or EMTs

-my family doc referred me to a gyn back in the summer -- I saw him two

weeks ago

-forget seeing a specialist in any kind of timely fashion

-services for kids like are on a consultant-only basis; after the kid

is 5, they no longer fund therapy

So, we pay nothing for health care -- but you get what you pay for.
