Midrid Migraine Relief Capsules are a pain relief medication that helps ease pain caused by migraines or throbbing headaches.
They can be used when a migraine strikes, helping you manage your pain until the migraine has passed.
How Midrid Migraine Relief Capsules work
Midrid contains the active ingredients paracetamol and isometheptene, which work together to ease the pain caused by migraines.
Paracetamol is a painkiller that eases pain while also helping to reduce high temperatures.
Isometheptene helps to return swollen blood vessels to normal after they become swollen during a migraine, reducing the throbbing pain you experience.
Directions
Always take Midrid Migraine Relief Capsules exactly as described in the patient information leaflet or as your doctor / Chemist4U pharmacist has told you.
Take 2 capsules as soon as you notice signs that you are getting a migraine. If you still have your migraine an hour later, take another capsule.
Keep taking one additional capsule every hour until your migraine has cleared. Do not take more than 5 capsules in any 12 hours.
If you still have your migraine after 12 hours, you can take one more course of treatment, beginning again with 2 capsules and taking one capsule every hour up to a maximum of 5 capsules.
If you still have a migraine after this time, speak to your doctor or Chemist4U pharmacist for advice.
