Description

Solpadeine Max Soluble provides effective short-term relief from moderate pain by combining paracetamol and codeine in a fast-dissolving formulation. Solpadeine Max Soluble is commonly used for migraines, backache, period pain, toothache and rheumatic pain. The effervescent format allows Solpadeine Max Soluble to be dissolved in water, which may be preferable for those who have difficulty swallowing tablets. Solpadeine Max Soluble should only be used for a few days at a time due to the presence of codeine.

  • Contains paracetamol and codeine for stronger pain relief
  • Suitable for headaches, migraines, dental and muscular pain
  • Effervescent tablets dissolve in water before use
  • Designed for short-term management of moderate pain

Directions

Always take Solpadeine Max Soluble exactly as directed on the packaging or by your pharmacist. Dissolve the recommended number of Solpadeine Max Soluble tablets fully in a glass of water before drinking. Leave at least four to six hours between doses and do not exceed the stated maximum dose in twenty-four hours. Solpadeine Max Soluble should not be taken for more than three consecutive days unless advised by a healthcare professional.

Ingredients

Solpadeine Max Soluble contains paracetamol and codeine phosphate as its active ingredients to provide combined pain relief. Each tablet of Solpadeine Max Soluble also contains excipients that enable the effervescent action and help the tablet dissolve in water. The product may contain sodium and other inactive ingredients, which are listed in the patient information leaflet. Always check the full ingredient list of Solpadeine Max Soluble if you have allergies or dietary concerns.

Warnings

Do not take Solpadeine Max Soluble if you are allergic to paracetamol, codeine or any of the other ingredients. Solpadeine Max Soluble contains codeine, which can cause dependence if used continuously for more than three days. Do not take Solpadeine Max Soluble with other products containing paracetamol, as this may increase the risk of serious liver damage. Consult a doctor before using Solpadeine Max Soluble if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have liver or kidney problems, or are taking other medications. Keep Solpadeine Max Soluble out of sight and reach of children.

Frequently asked questions

  • What types of pain can Solpadeine Max Soluble help relieve?

    Solpadeine Max Soluble is used for short-term relief of moderate pain when other painkillers have not worked. It can help ease migraines, dental pain, backache, period pain, and muscular aches.

     

  • How does Solpadeine Max Soluble work in the body?

    Solpadeine Max Soluble contains paracetamol and codeine, which work together to reduce pain signals. Paracetamol relieves pain and lowers fever, while codeine enhances pain relief by acting on the central nervous system.

     

  • Can Solpadeine Max Soluble be taken for headaches?

    Yes, it may be used for severe headaches or migraines when standard pain relief is insufficient. It should only be taken for a short duration and according to the recommended dosage instructions.

     

  • Is Solpadeine Max Soluble suitable for long-term use?

    This medicine is intended for short-term use only due to the presence of codeine. Prolonged use can increase the risk of dependence and medication-overuse headaches.

     

  • Are there any precautions when taking Solpadeine Max Soluble?

    It should not be taken with other products containing paracetamol to avoid overdose. Individuals with breathing problems, liver conditions, or those who are pregnant should seek medical advice before use.
