How does Solpadol Work?
Solpadol contains both paracetamol and codeine.
Paracetamol is a common pain killer that works by blocking the chemical messengers of pain. This minimises your sensation of pain.buy Solpadol online
Codeine is an opioid pain reliever. It blocks the pain signals that would usually travel along the nerves to the brain. With the pain signals blocked in your nervous system, you can expect your pain to subside or disappear altogether.buy Solpadol online
Taking two different forms of pain relief can help you manage your pain more effectively. By taking the drugs combined in one tablet, you can also minimise the number of pills you need to take each day.

Solpadol Effervescent

What is the dosage of Solpadol?
Solpadol 30/500

Solpadol Dosage
The usual dose is one or two tablets taken up to four times daily. There should be 6 hours between each dose, and the maximum number of tablets you can take in a 24 hour period is 8 tablets.
It is common for two Solpadol tablets to be taken at a time. This equals a dose of 1000mg (1 gram) of paracetamol, which is the maximum recommended amount of paracetamol per dose. You must therefore not take any other paracetamol containing medications whilst taking the maximum dose of Solpadol.
Codeine can become addictive when taken long term. Over a long period, some people can become dependent on codeine or experience symptoms of withdrawal when stopping it. Your prescriber will talk to you about your likely course of treatment, including when and how you can expect to stop taking it to avoid dependence.

Can pregnant women take Solpadol?
Solpadol is typically not recommended as a suitable treatment for pregnant women as the foetus may develop a dependence to it (due to the active ingredient, codeine), which can lead to withdrawal symptoms in the neonate. Consult your regular healthcare provider or doctor for the appropriate medical advice to assess the risks and your suitability for Solpadol if you are pregnant.
Can women who are breastfeeding take Solpadol?
Solpadol is typically not recommended as a suitable treatment for women who are breastfeeding as the active ingredient, codeine can be secreted in the mother’s breast milk causing the infant to suffer respiratory depression. There could also be a risk of opioid toxicity for the infant. You should always consult your regular healthcare provider or doctor to assess the risks before taking Solpadol when breastfeeding.
What withdrawal symptoms can Solpadol have?
Rarely, Solpadol users will experience withdrawal syndrome. Opioid drug withdrawal symptoms can include increased blood pressure, increased heart rate, increased respiratory rate and/or breathing problems, diarrhoea, nausea and vomiting, stomach cramps, insomnia, headache, migraines, weakness, anorexia, anxiety, chills, restlessness amongst other symptoms. A healthcare professional or doctor should be contacted as soon as possible after you start to experience any of these withdrawal symptoms when coming off Solpadol usage.
