Is It Safe To Use Antecimine And Codine For Pain ?

my 70 year old husband who is overweight fell two days ago. he is having pain from his upper right back and arm hurts to breath deep, so we assumed no ribs were affected but the muscle may be. it is midnight so going to emergency might be a waste of their time. nothing may be able to stop his pain. he is having a mobility problem causing him pain in the upper back area. I tried a tens machine but it would not work. he has been taking Tylenol for night time, but I have antectemin with codine we thought he could try. he is metformin, and low bp medication. should we use the antecimine with codine.

Hi
It is better to avoid codeine. You can take tramadol along with tylenol. Or should take ketoprofen or ketorolac tablets.
thanks
