What are Panadol Extra Advance Tablets 

Panadol Extra Advance Tablets are absorbed faster than standard paracetamol and caffeine tablets.

They can relieve headaches, migraines, backaches, rheumatic, toothache and period pain. They also reduce the fever, aches and pains of colds and flu.

The tablets contain two active ingredients. Paracetamol is a painkiller that reduces your temperature when you have a fever, and caffeine acts to help the effectiveness of paracetamol further.

How to take Panadol Extra Advance Tablets

Adults and children aged 16 years and over: Swallow two tablets every 4 hours as needed. Do not take more than eight tablets in 24 hours.

Children aged 12-15 years: Swallow one tablet every 4 hours as needed. Do not give more than four tablets in 24 hours.

• Do not take more frequently than every 4 hours.
• Do not take more than the recommended dose.
• Do not give to children under 12 years.
• Avoid too much caffeine in drinks like coffee and tea.

High caffeine intake can cause difficulty sleeping, shaking and an uncomfortable feeling in the chest.

If your symptoms continue or your headache becomes persistent, see your doctor.

If you take too many tablets

Talk to a doctor immediately if you take too much of this medicine, even if you feel well. This is because too much paracetamol can cause delayed, severe liver damage.
