Panadol Extra Advance (14 Tablets)

Product Summary

Panadol Extra Advance Tablets are faster absorbed than standard paracetamol and caffeine tablets. They are suitable for the relief of headache, migraine, backache, rheumatic pain, toothache and period pain. They also relieve the fever, aches and pains of colds and flu.

The tablets contain two active ingredients: paracetamol, which relieves pain and reduces your temperature when you have a fever; and caffeine, which acts to further help the effectiveness of paracetamol.
