Maxigesic (Ibuprofen + Paracetamol) 500mg/150mg Tablet 10s (Strip)

Maxigesic 500mg/150mg Tablet is a combination pain reliever, bringing together paracetamol (an analgesic and antipyretic) and ibuprofen (a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, or NSAID), in a single tablet. If you're reaching for this for the first time, you're probably wondering how the two ingredients work together — they act through different pathways, so combining them is designed to offer more effective relief than either ingredient might provide alone, taken with a large glass of water.

Some people experience mild side effects such as nausea, heartburn, stomach discomfort, or dizziness, particularly with prolonged use or on an empty stomach. It's generally meant for short-term use only, so if your pain or fever doesn't improve within a few days, checking in with your doctor is a good next step. Because it contains an NSAID, it's worth having a quick chat with your doctor or pharmacist if you have stomach, kidney, liver, or heart conditions, or are pregnant, before starting this medicine.

For adults and children over 12 years, the typical dose is one to two tablets, repeated every six hours as required, up to a maximum of 8 tablets in 24 hours. This product is generally intended for short-term use of only a few days at a time unless otherwise directed by your doctor.

Store the tablets below 30°C, in their original packaging to protect them from light, and away from moisture. Keep out of reach of children.

• Always take with a large glass of water, ideally with food.
• Check other medications you’re taking to avoid duplicating paracetamol, ibuprofen, or NSAIDs.

Swallow the tablet whole with a large glass of water, and it’s generally advisable to take it with or after food to help reduce the chance of stomach discomfort. Avoid taking other products containing paracetamol, ibuprofen, aspirin, or other NSAIDs at the same time unless specifically advised by your doctor.

Maxigesic 500mg/150mg Tablet generally has a shelf life of around 2–3 years from the date of manufacture when stored correctly and unopened. Always check the expiry date printed on the blister strip and outer carton before use.

Maxigesic may interact with certain medications, including those for stomach cramps (such as propantheline) and bile acid sequestrants (such as cholestyramine), as well as blood thinners and other NSAIDs. It’s important to inform your doctor or pharmacist about all medications you are taking. Avoid combining this medicine with other products containing paracetamol, ibuprofen, or aspirin, and limit alcohol intake, as excessive alcohol may increase the risk of liver-related side effects.
