Dafalgan

Dafalgan combines paracetamol and codeine phosphate hemihydrate for temporary relief of moderate pain that is not relieved by paracetamol alone. This oral analgesic is suitable for adults and children over 12 years seeking short-term symptom control.

Dafalgan is commonly used to relieve mild to moderate pain such as headaches, muscle aches, or dental discomfort when paracetamol alone is insufficient. It may also help reduce fever associated with common colds or flu-like symptoms.

Users typically experience gradual pain relief within 30 to 60 minutes after taking Dafalgan, with effects lasting several hours. Some may notice mild drowsiness, which can be helpful for rest during recovery.

Avoid exceeding the recommended dose to reduce the risk of liver damage or other side effects. Keep out of reach of children and do not use for more than 3 days without consulting a healthcare professional.

Dafalgan may interact with alcohol, increasing the risk of liver damage or excessive drowsiness. It can also affect the metabolism of other medications processed by the liver, so consult a pharmacist if taking other drugs regularly.
