You must be canadian(cocodamol is native to your land I hear). I dont meen to be rude, but doesnt your question kind of answer itself? Your gonna fry your liver unless you cold water extract those. Codeine is kind of a week opiate and you can only take so much before you acheive a ceiling effect (as in no more will get you higher). The mechanism of action is hepetic (liver) where in aproximately 15% per MG of codeine is converted to morphine. I believe the max amount of codeine the average liver can process is around 300-400mg of codeine which MEANS at the very worst you are on the equivilant of 60mg morphine. IMO this wont be a hard one to get off...and BTW...You should get off them before it does become a problem!
