How It Works
Paracetamol blocks pain signals in the brain and reduces fever through central action. Ibuprofen reduces inflammation, pain, and fever by inhibiting COX enzymes that produce prostaglandins. Caffeine enhances the pain-relieving effects of both analgesics and provides mild stimulation to combat fatigue associated with pain.
Dosage
Patient Age | Standard Dosage | Maximum Daily Dosage |
---|---|---|
Adults | 1-2 tablets every 6-8 hours | 6 tablets daily |
Elderly | 1 tablet every 8 hours | 3 tablets daily |
Take Sudrex Extra with food or milk to reduce stomach irritation. Swallow whole with a full glass of water.
Duration of Action
Sudrex Extra begins working within 30-45 minutes of administration. Pain relief typically peaks at 1-2 hours and lasts for 6-8 hours. The combination provides more sustained relief than individual components alone, making it suitable for managing persistent pain conditions.
Side Effects
Common side effects include mild stomach upset, nausea, or heartburn. Some patients may experience nervousness or difficulty sleeping due to caffeine content. Less common effects include dizziness, headache, or allergic reactions. Prolonged use may increase risk of stomach ulcers or kidney problems.
Warning
Do not exceed recommended dosage or use for more than 10 days without medical supervision. Overuse can cause serious liver damage from paracetamol or stomach bleeding from ibuprofen. Avoid alcohol during treatment. Discontinue use and seek medical attention for signs of allergic reactions, severe stomach pain, or unusual bleeding.
Pregnancy and Breastfeeding
Avoid Sudrex Extra during pregnancy, especially in the third trimester, as ibuprofen may cause complications. Paracetamol alone is preferred during pregnancy. Small amounts pass into breast milk but are generally considered safe during breastfeeding when used occasionally and as directed.
Interaction
- May increase risk of bleeding with anticoagulant medications
- Possible reduced effectiveness of blood pressure medications
- May increase toxicity when combined with alcohol
- Potential interaction with certain antidepressants
- Could affect blood sugar control in diabetic patients
- May enhance effects of other stimulants due to caffeine content
Precaution
Use with caution in patients with stomach ulcers, kidney disease, liver problems, heart conditions, or high blood pressure. Elderly patients require reduced dosages. Avoid in those with aspirin allergies. Limit caffeine intake from other sources during treatment to prevent overstimulation.
Important Information
Sudrex Extra is for short-term use only. Read labels carefully to avoid accidental overdose from other paracetamol or ibuprofen-containing products. Store at room temperature away from moisture and heat. If pain persists beyond recommended treatment duration, consult a healthcare provider for proper evaluation and alternative treatment options.
