Inconsistency?

The lead-in for this article states "Co-dydramol is in fact part of a series of combination drugs available in the UK and other countries including Co-codaprin (aspirin and codeine), Co-codamol (codeine phosphate and paracetamol) and Co-proxamol (dextropropoxyphene and paracetamol)."

And yet, under "Formulation" it states "All formulations contain 500 mg of paracetamol per tablet" (emphasis mine in both paragraphs)

Could someone with more knowledge fix this, as it would appear that not all formulations contain APAP, or DHC, as a matter of fact. Kailey elise (talk) 16:53, 3 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You're reading it wrongly - co-codaprin is something else. Co-dydramol is always paracetamol (acetaminophen) plus dihydrocodeine. But I'll try and make it a bit clearer. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.8.204.9 (talk) 14:35, 5 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
