Description

Panadol Extra tablets are used for the relief of headache, backache, rheumatic pain, muscle pain, neuralgia, toothache and period pain. They also relieve discomfort in colds, flu, and sore throat and help reduce temperature.

The tablets contain two active ingredients.

  • Paracetamol is a painkiller and reduces your temperature when you have a fever.
  • Caffeine acts to further help the effectiveness of paracetamol.

Directions for use:

Adults, elderly and children aged 16 years and over:

Take 2 tablets with water every 4 hours as required, but no more than 8 tablets in 24 hours.

Do not take more than 4 tablets a day in the following situations, unless directed by your doctor:

  • If you have a high fever, or if symptoms get worse or persist for longer than 3 days, consult your doctor.
