Just a few facts about Anadin Extra before I begin:

• ~ Suppliers ~ Whitehall Laboratories
• ~ Manufactured ~ Republic of Ireland
• ~ Treatment ~ Symptoms of mild to moderate pain.


Have you ever experienced a one-sided headache? ~ a constant pounding accompanied by nausea and vomiting. If you have then you know what its like to be a migraine sufferer ~ having a headache is one thing but a migraine headache is deadly, the pain is so intense that you are unable to think straight and all you want to do is lie down. A migraine attack is caused when the head & brain is being starved of oxygen, a change in the blood vessels supplying the brain. There are many myths about migraine sufferers but that’s all they are “myths”, not enough concrete evidence suggest these myths are true.

E.g.:

1)~ More professional people suffer from migraine
2)~ Migraine sufferers are more intelligent
3)~ Migraine headaches run in the family
4)~ Migraine sufferers are more tense & neurotic than non-sufferers.


So after suffering almost ten years with these damn headaches & trying a wealth of medicinal products in search of a cure I was getting nowhere. Most tablets I tried were either too weak or too strong with possible side effects, whilst others promised quick relief but had no effect. Before Anadin Extra was introduced I tried Anadin Regular & they were a complete waste of money & so the more reason why I avoided Anadin Extra, I just figured that they were going to have the same effect on me ~ I was wrong.

Anadin Extra ~ This for me is a wonder drug, I have finally found a medicinal product that actually works for me & the annoying thing is that it was staring at me right in the face every time I entered a chemist but simply ignored it. I have been using Anadin Extra for almost one year now & I now feel I have my migraines under control. The important part of treatment is to try to prevent an attack starting & even though I could identify with the symptoms, the tablets I was using in the past was unable to prevent the migraine from happening ~ On the other hand Anadin Extra works wonders, as soon as I start to feel an attack coming on then I take 2 tablets & in less than half an hour the pain has gone. Its too good to be true, especially after suffering for so many years but it really does work & I’m now getting fewer headaches ~ the few I do get I no longer have to worry or panic myself about all that pain.

=======
• ~ Other Uses ~ •
=============

What I like about this wonder drug is that not only does it tackle & cure your headaches BUT Anadin Extra does more than that ~ these tablets contain a tried & trusted formulation for the treatment of:

• ~ Toothache
• ~ Sore Throat
• ~ Rheumatic Pain
• ~ Muscular Aches
• ~ Fever
• ~ Menstrual Cycle Pains

The above are just a few of the many symptoms that Anadin Extra can be used for ~ and I for one have used it to treat other symptoms than just my migraine headaches & in each case Anadin Extra has comforted & relieved the pain.

========
• ~ Packaging ~ •
==============

Anadin Extra is packaged in a bright yellow box ~ Packaging tells a great deal about what kind of tablets is inside ~ much can be learnt from the information on the box & so the more reason to study it before taking any tablets. All information on the box is well documented & easy to understand ~ inside the box is a small leaflet giving some literature on the medicinal product & instructions on dosage & things to avoid. Anadin Extra is available in the following packs:

• ~ Pack of 08 tablets
• ~ Pack of 12 tablets
• ~ Pack of 16 tablets
• ~ Pack of 32 tablets ~ £ 3.25

==============
• ~ Active Ingredients ~ •
==============

Anadin Extra tablets contain many compounds but the main two active ingredients are

• ~ Paracetamol ~ An ingredient that is found in numerous medicinal products ~ it is mild pain reliever & at the same time it lowers the body temperature ~ it has no anti-inflammatory properties. ~ Anadin Extra contains 200mg of paracetamol.

WARNING: ~ People who suffer from liver/kidney problems should take paracetamal with caution.

&

• ~ Aspirin ~ Aspirin has to be one of the most widely used drug ~ It has been used for more than a century as a pain & fever remedy. According to scientists aspirin reduces fever by causing the blood vessels in our skin to open, thus allowing more heat to leave our bodies more rapidly. Aspirin has a great effect on pains & inflammation, such as swollen joints, muscle pains, ligaments etc. ~ Anadin Extra contains 300mg of aspirin.


WARNING: ~ People with liver/kidney problems, asthma/breathing problems, stomach ulcers, & children under the age of 12 should avoid aspirin.


I don’t know whether it’s the combination of the paracetamol & aspirin that improves the pain-relieving effect BUT one thing I do know is that Anadin Extra works for me & without any side-effects (rashes etc) ~ I quote “fast, effective pain relief” that’s what’s written on the tiny yellow box & that’s what Anadin Extra does.


• ~ NOTE ~ •: Remember that aspirin & paracetamol is present in many pain-relieving tablets, so always read the contents. Anadin Extra tablets may not suit everybody & just because it works for me it may not work for you ~ It took me a while to find a product that works & now that I have I will not part with this wonder drug called “Anadin Extra”….

==============
• ~ General Information ~ •
====================

Tablets are sold in different colours & different sizes ~ You can just tell that plenty of thought has gone into the Anadin Extra tablet. This may sound silly but have you ever tried to swallow a chunky tablet that just won’t go down your windpipe & whilst your struggling to swallow, it starts to melt in your mouth, leaving a horrible & bitter taste ~ Yuk! Yuk! ~

The Anadin Extra tablet is designed to make it easier to consume ~ the white tablet is specially shaped for easy swallowing ~ the oval shaped compressed tablet has a special coating on it and when swallowing it feels smooth on the tongue and has no problems going down your throat without causing any discomfort.

=======
• ~ Usual Dose ~ •
=============

• ~ Adults ~ 2 tablets every four hours.

• ~ Children over 12 ~ 2 tablets every four hours

• ~ Elderly ~ 2 tablets very four hours

NOTE: ~ DO NOT EXCEED 8 TABLETS IN 24 HOURS.


========
• ~ Bottom Line ~ •
==============

The bottom line is ~ ANADIN EXTRA WORKS & like my title suggests, a wonder drug that I couldn’t do without.

I usually vomit at least twice during each period, and they're absolutely agonising. This is the only stuff that works, although it doesn't take away the pain completely! x

I think I could do with some of these now. I've spent too much time at the PC and have a headach again.
