Panadol Extend is a sustained release formulation of paracetamol that provides gentle and lasting relief from back and pain and even for persistent joint pain (such as osteoarthritis) for up to 8 hours.
The patented bi-layer caplet starts to release one layer straight away for fast pain relief, while the second layer is released slowly over a period to give lasting relief. This means lasting back and pain relief than ordinary Panadol, with the improved convenience of fewer doses. And you can rest assured it won’t harm your stomach
