WHAT PANADOL EXTRA CAPLET IS USED
FOR
Treatment of mild to moderate pain,
relief from fever, and symptoms of
colds, flu and sore throat.
HOW PANADOL EXTRA CAPLET WORKS
Paracetamol works by inhibiting the
production of compounds in the body
called
prostaglandin.
This
action
helps to reduce pain and fever.
Caffeine
enhances
the
efficacy
of
paracetamol to relief pain.
