Solpadeine Max Soluble provide relief of rheumatic pain, headache, migraine, neuralgia, toothache, sore throat, period pain, feverishness and the symptoms of colds and influenza. 

Solpadeine Max Soluble (paracetamol, caffeine, codeine) is a compound analgesic which provides rapid pain relief when regular painkillers like ibuprofen or aspirin are insufficient. The medication should not be used in patients under 12 years of age, or while pregnant or breastfeeding.

This product is similar to Solpadeine Max, but also differs in some important ways:

• Solpadeine Max Soluble tablets are designed to be dissolved in water prior to administration.
• Solpadeine Max Soluble tablets contain 30 mg caffeine in addition to the 500 mg paracetamol and 12.8 mg codeine found in Solpadeine Max.
• Solpadeine Max Soluble tablets begin working twice as fast as Solpadeine Max.

Solpadeine Max Soluble is a pharmacist-only medication; a prescription is not required for purchase, but sale must be approved by a pharmacist to ensure the safe use and potential risks of the medication are understood.

Solpadeine Max Soluble for Maximum Pain Relief

Solpadeine Max Soluble is one of the most potent painkillers available without a prescription. It is easy to use and highly effective at combating moderate pain.

The fast action of Solpadeine Max Soluble is desirable in all types of pain, but is particularly beneficial in headaches---as is caffeine. For best results in alleviating headache pain, including migraines, the medication should be taken at the earliest possible symptoms. In addition to headaches, this product is commonly used to alleviate pain from:

• Backache
• Arthritis
• Menstrual cramps
• Toothache
• Strains & sprains
• Aches & pains
• Neuralgia
• Sciatica
• Other mild to moderate pain

The compound formula of Solpadeine Max Soluble is the secret to its effectiveness; though relatively weak painkillers on their own, when combined the active ingredients considerably enhance each other. Each Solpadeine Max Soluble contains:

• paracetamol - a widely used painkiller for over 100 years, paracetamol desensitizes nerve endings and reduces fever.
• codeine - a member of the opioid family, codeine disrupts pain signals to the brain, significantly reducing the sensation of pain.
• caffeine - also a painkiller in its own right, caffeine interferes with pain signals, acts as a mild anti-inflammatory agent, and enhances the effects of paracetamol and codeine.

Solpadeine Max Soluble comes in tablets which are designed to rapidly dissolve in water. Tablets should not be swallowed whole. Food is optional; effects may be felt faster on an empty stomach, but taking the medication with food may reduce any stomach-related side effects of nausea, vomiting or cramping.

In otherwise healthy patients aged 12 years and up, dosage and administration is straightforward:

• Dissolve 1 or 2 soluble tablets in at least a half a glass of water.
• Consume the medicated water immediately after tablets are dissolved.
• Repeat as-needed every 4 to 6 hours to manage pain.
• Do not exceed 8 tablets in 24 hours.

Most patients begin to feel some pain relief just 5 to 15 minutes after administration; maximum benefit is typically felt after around 30 minutes. Effects gradually begin to decline 4 to 6 hours after the medication is taken, though this may vary by individual.

Solpadeine Max Soluble should not be taken for more than three days in a row. Prolonged use increases the risk of side effects from all three active ingredients, and the medication will gradually become less effective as the body builds up tolerance to codeine.

Precautions & Adverse Effects

Serious side effects are unlikely if Solpadeine Max Soluble is used as directed in otherwise healthy patients. More common side effects are typically mild and not cause for concern, including:

• Constipation
• Nausea
• Vomiting
• Dry mouth
• Dizziness
• Drowsiness
• Sweating
• Itching
• Increased urination
• Difficulty urinating

Individuals who have preexisting medical conditions may be at greater risk of serious reactions; particularly those who:

• Have a history of allergic reaction to NSAIDs or other painkillers
• Have any condition which impairs breathing or decreases lung function
• Have a history of liver, kidney or heart disease
• Have any intestinal problems, particularly bowel blockages
• Have a history of gallbladder problems or have had the gallbladder removed

Solpadeine Max Soluble may interact with other medications, including over-the-counter varieties. Check with a doctor or pharmacist before mixing Solpadeine Max Soluble with other medications.
