FAQ
What is the strongest painkiller?
Different painkillers may work well for one person but not another. Generally, paracetamol is the first painkiller people are advised to take. For more severe pain strong NSAIDs like Naproxen, or a weak opioid like codeine, may be prescribed. Generally, very strong painkillers like morphine and oxycodone are only prescribed by your doctor if your pain is very severe.
Is tramadol stronger than codeine?
Tramadol and codeine are very similar in terms of how strong they are. However, in the UK, tramadol is prescribed in higher strengths than codeine. It is also only available on prescription, so many people consider it to be stronger than codeine because codeine is available to buy from a pharmacy.
Which drugs are NSAIDs?
Ibuprofen, naproxen, diclofenac, and aspirin are all types of NSAIDs. They are often used for their anti-inflammatory effects.
Is paracetamol an NSAID?
No, paracetamol is not an NSAID. However, paracetamol can be an effective painkiller and is suitable for most people to take.
