Nausea and vomiting is usually self-limited, and to a large degree (at least acutely) so is dysphoria. Mild respiratory depression usually responds to minor stimulation, even talking. More severe degrees may need a reversal agent like naloxone if available or even mechanical ventilation. None of this is likely to be a big problem if the amounts of the drugs are reasonable.

It involves a trip to the ER for either a nice charcoal "shake" or a good stomach pump. If your wife is on Tylenol w/ codeine right now the best thing would be if she would read the warnings on her prescription bottle and give up the night caps until her condition does not require medication. What would she do if she were on antibiotics, then she would have to abstain? 1 more thing..... When these 2 are mixed you may not recognize the signs of an overdose until it were too late, because they both depress breathing and she could just drift off to sleep and you wouldn't think anything of it for awhile.
