Headaches can be brought on for a variety of reasons and it’s not always easy to isolate the cause. Because MAXIGESIC® combines paracetamol and ibuprofen it tackles headaches fast and effectively, whether it's muscle tension in the head, neck and shoulders or due to factors like anxiety, lack of sleep or alcohol.

Muscular pain, whether it’s caused by physical exertion in sports or by sitting at a computer all day, is the result of strained or damaged tissue.

MAXIGESIC®'s double-action formulation of paracetamol and ibuprofen can help ease the pain and reduce the inflammation you may experience due to backache. You can take MAXIGESIC® for short term backache relief (e.g. to help aid recovery after an injury or to relieve a tight sore back after exercise), but if you have chronic, on-going back pain you should see your doctor to diagnose the cause and provide appropriate treatment options.
There are no known cures for any of the forms of arthritis, but the pain that’s caused can be managed by a combination of medication, exercise and a healthy diet.

Period pain is experienced as cramps in the abdomen and pelvic area, and is caused by the uterine contractions that expel dead tissue after non-fertilised ovulation.
