Maxigesic Tablets - Dual-Action Paracetamol and Ibuprofen Pain Relief
Maxigesic combines paracetamol 500mg and ibuprofen 150mg in a unique double-action formulation for fast, effective pain relief.

Available in 20, 50 and 100 tablet packs.
Key Features
- Paracetamol 500mg + ibuprofen 150mg - clinically superior combination
- Dual-action: analgesic plus anti-inflammatory
- NZ-developed and clinically proven formula
- Available in 20, 50 and 100 tab packs
- For headache, dental pain, period pain, muscle and joint pain
FAQ: Why is combining paracetamol and ibuprofen better than taking either alone?
Paracetamol and ibuprofen work through completely different pain pathways - paracetamol acts centrally in the brain while ibuprofen blocks peripheral inflammatory prostaglandins. Clinical studies show this complementary dual-mechanism provides significantly better pain relief than either drug at standard doses alone - without needing to increase the dose of either individual drug. This is the rationale behind Maxigesic's fixed-combination formulation.
FAQ: Can I take Maxigesic with other pain relievers?
Do not take Maxigesic with other paracetamol or ibuprofen-containing products. Check all other medications you are taking for these ingredients. Maxigesic already contains both active ingredients in one tablet - adding more risks exceeding safe daily limits. Ask our pharmacist if you are unsure about combining Maxigesic with other medications.
FAQ: Which pack size should I buy?
The 20-tab pack is ideal for acute short-term use. The 50-tab pack suits regular users managing ongoing pain conditions. The 100-tab pack provides the best value for those who use Maxigesic frequently and want to ensure supply is always on hand.
