Someone during the illness, my friend gave me a pillExeI was very surprised that the drug can help so much, the headache went away completely, it took a lot of energy from somewhere, even increased tone, and in this condition easily performed the usual amount of work. However, after 3-4 hours the headache began to build up againSo I had to take a pill again

Now Excedrine - tablets that I keep with me for the first time for 3 days for ARVI I take 2-3 tablets a day In the morning - before going to work, in the afternoon - during lunch and in the evening when I comehome. I do not drink the pill for more than 3 days, as it starts to ache the stomach, but this is not necessary, because a severe headache occurs only in the early days of the disease. "

1 The main characteristics of the drug

Over the development of the drug, Excerdin worked for a long time in local chemical laboratories. The main goal was to create a medicine that can help to eliminate pain symptoms to as many people as possible. Paracetamol, which is part of the drug, acts as an anesthetic, reduces fever and has a weak anti-inflammatory effect.

Acetylsalicylic acid also anesthetizes, relieves fever and inflammation, slows the formation of blood clots and improves blood circulation in the inflammatory focus. Thanks to caffeine, the reflex excitability of the spinal cord increases, respiratory and vasomotor centers are excited, the blood vessels expand, and platelet aggregation decreases. Caffeine helps to remove drowsiness, reduce fatigue in the body, increase physical and mental activity. The dose of caffeine in Exedrine is low enough, so the drug has almost no effect on the central nervous system, while normalizing the tone of the vessels of the brain and speeding up the blood flow in it.

Excedrine can be used by adults and adolescents from the age of 15.With severe headache or toothache, relief usually comes after 15 minutes, with migraine - after half an hour. If pain syndromes after use of the drug do not stop, further use of Excedrine is permissible only after consultation with the attending physician.
