Advantages: Works quickly, can be used for different types of pain

Disadvantages: Can be addictive if you aren't careful

I have suffered with terrible headaches since I was a teenager and had tried many painkillers and alternative remedies. Nothing haas worked as well to beat these headaches as Anadin Extra.

The tablets can be used to treat many different types of pain, for example, migraine, period pain, neuralgia, muscular pain and joint pain. The dosage is 1-2 tablets every 4-6 hours. I have only ever taken the higher dosage, and would say relief begins after about 20 minutes. The tablets are fairly small and very easy to swallow. The ingredients are aspirin, paracetamol and caffiene.

Pricing varies, but you can expect to pay around £1.80 for a pack of 16. it is possible to buy a larger and more economical pack of 32 over the pharmacy counter.

I have also experienced periods of quite severe joint pain, and chose to take anadin extra instead of prescription medication. It worked a treat, probably to do with the anti-inflamatory action of the tablets.

Beware, it is easy to become addicted to over the counter pain medication and this can cause long term, serious health problems. These painkillers are great, but use only when needed and with caution.

Summary: A good all round painkiller
