Pharmacist-Answered FAQs

How does 4head QuickStrip work?

It offers a cooling feeling by taking heat away from the skin, creating this cooling sensation. This can then dull the migraine pain. At the same time, it relaxes tense muscles, which often contribute to headaches.

Can I use 4head QuickStrip with other painkillers?

Yes. Because it contains no active medication, you can use it alongside paracetamol or ibuprofen if needed.

Do I need to keep 4head QuickStrip in the fridge?

No. The strip works straight out of the packet. Storing it in the fridge won’t make it more effective, but you can try it if you prefer an extra chill.

Can I reuse 4head QuickStrip?

No. Once removed, after application, the strip loses its effectiveness because of the way the medication work. It is a single use only.

Is 4head QuickStrip safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?

Yes. There are no drugs involved, so it’s safe to use at any stage of pregnancy or whilst breastfeeding aswell.

How long does each strip last?

They can last up to six hours, but you can replace them sooner if needed.

Can children use 4head QuickStrip?

It is only suitable for ages 12 and up. Younger children should use other cooling methods recommended by a doctor.

Can I cut a strip?

Yes, this is safe, especially if using it on smaller areas like around the temples.

Will the strip stick if I sweat?

Small amounts of sweating isn’t a problem, but if your skin is very damp or even wet, the strip may not stay in place properly. Always dry the area before applying.

Does it help with tension headaches?

Yes. The cooling sensation effects can offer relief for tension headaches too.

Can I use it while working or sleeping?

Yes...well it depends - it generally can stay in place well, however if you tend to toss and turn a lot in your sleep, it might fall off.

Will it interact with other medical conditions?

No - drug interactions to worry about. There is a reasonable chance if you have very sensitive skin, to experience some irritation.

Does it have a smell?

No. It is completely odourless.

Can I use it on other body parts?

It’s designed for the forehead, temples, and neck. Using it somewhere else on the body won’t be harmful, but it may not stick as well and offer the same level of relief.

How 4head QuickStrip Compares

• Painkillers in tablet form, in comparison, take longer to kick in but last longer - they can last up to 12 hours, depending on the formulation. 4head QuickStrip offers instant relief, but only temporarily.

• Cold compresses do work well but aren’t as practical and on the go. 4head QuickStrip is portable and convienient.

• Some topical gels, like menthol-containing products, can offer relief but can also be overpowering. 4head QuickStrip is scent-free.
