Answer 4

Mai, although it is dangerous to this, you are probablly okay.  If you really question your safety though, you should call your doctor as this could technically be considered an overdose.

The Tylenol with Codein in and of itself could cause the sleepy effect, especially if you haven't eaten.  I took it when I had mono at 16 without eating for a few days, and I thought I was going to die.  Just sprawled out on the floor and laid there until it wore off.  Eat something, drink something.  Consume a lot of fluids.  But seriously, don't take anyone's word for it there, including mine.  If you really feel weird, you should consider calling a doctor or the poison control center.

They will tell you if it is reasonable to seek medical attention and that is the safest thing you can do.

Answer 5

Your tired because its a side effect of pain killers. Also codeine can make you "high" so that could the weird and dizzy effect! Also make sure the drug doesn't already contain Tylenol you can tell by looking at the bottle it came in if it has Tylenol it will have "AP AP" after.
