Is Co-Codomol 15 Mg Tablet Recommended For A Child?

Hi my 10 year old son has a headache would it be possible for me to give him a single Co-Codomol 15 mg tablet? I have no other pain killers in my home and realize it says over 12 years old but would a single tablet taken just once do him harm? He is a healthy child has no serious long term illness. Thankyou
