1. What Solpadeine Headache Tablets do

Solpadeine Headache Tablets can provide effective relief from headache including migraine. They can also relieve backache, rheumatic and muscle pain, toothache, sore throat, period pain and relieve the fever, aches and pains of colds and flu.

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

•    if you are taking other medicines containing paracetamol.

Ask your doctor before you take this medicine:

* if you have liver or kidney disease, including alcoholic liver disease.

If you are taking other medicines

Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before taking these tablets if you are taking any prescribed medicines; particularly metoclopramide or domperidone (for nausea [feeling sick] or vomiting [being sick]) or colestyramine (to lower blood cholesterol). If you take blood thinning drugs (anticoagulants e.g. warfarin) and you need to take a pain reliever on a daily basis, talk to your doctor because of the risk of bleeding. But you can still take occasional doses of Solpadeine Headache Tablets at the same time as anticoagulants.
