Dihydrocodeine is a schedule 2, class A drug in the U.K. and is only available by prescription, however it's easily obtained via the internet without prescription. And yes Contugesic is dihydrocodeine.
Codeine is available as an O.T.C. med only when mixed with paracetamol, asprin or ibuprofen and the maximum amount is 12.5mgs per tablet, but codeine is easily separated from the drugs using a water filter. I guess the ideology behind this is it's better to let a human being die from liver failure than let them get a feeling they might enjoy!!!
