Answers:
Tylenol #3 (Tylenol with codeine) is only available by prescription because of the codeine!. Codeine is a Schedule III drug and is therefore restricted by the government!.

dinkerbell1969 - I'm sorry but you are incorrect!. Pain medications can have refills; they do not require a separate script each time!. This, of course, depends on the medication!. If the medication is a Schedule II drug then yes, it does require a separate script each time!. However, Schedule III medications can have refills!. Vicodin, Lortab, Norco, Tylenol #3, etc can have refills written without a separate script and these are all pain medications!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You need to get a written script from the doc, because it is for pain the doc office can not call it in!. Also, you can not get refills on pain meds!. Each script must be a new written script - if you were to need more!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I would always ask my doctor (or call the advice nurse) before taking any medication that I am unfamiliar with!. You never know how your body may react so it is best to get your doctor's advice, don't take chances!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You can only get T3's from the doctor, because they are a powerful tylenol!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Tylenol with codeine is available by prescription only!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
