Nurofen Long Lasting Pain Relief 300mg Prolonged Release Capsules

 

These capsules contain ibuprofen in a prolonged release formulation designed to provide extended pain relief. Each capsule delivers 300mg of ibuprofen gradually over time, reducing the need for frequent dosing throughout the day.

The prolonged release technology allows the active ingredient to be released slowly into your system, maintaining therapeutic levels for longer periods. This makes nurofen long lasting pain relief particularly suitable for managing persistent pain conditions that require sustained relief.

 

How the Prolonged Release Formula Works

 

The capsules use specialised coating technology to control the release of ibuprofen over an extended period. This means you receive a steady supply of the anti-inflammatory medication rather than a single immediate dose.

Ibuprofen works by blocking the production of prostaglandins, substances in your body that cause pain and inflammation. The prolonged release mechanism ensures these effects are maintained for longer, typically providing relief for up to 12 hours from a single dose.

 

Who Should Consider These Capsules

 

These capsules are suitable for adults and children over 12 years who need sustained pain relief. They are particularly helpful for people managing ongoing pain conditions who want to reduce dosing frequency whilst maintaining effective symptom control.

The prolonged release formulation is ideal for:

  • Managing chronic pain conditions requiring consistent relief
  • Reducing inflammation associated with musculoskeletal conditions
  • Providing convenient dosing for busy lifestyles
  • Supporting pain management when regular immediate-release tablets are insufficient

If you're looking for additional pain relief options, our pharmacy stocks various formulations to suit different needs and preferences.

 

Benefits of Extended Release Technology

 

The prolonged release formulation offers several practical advantages over standard immediate-release tablets. You can maintain consistent pain control with fewer doses throughout the day, which improves convenience and compliance with your pain management routine.

This technology also helps maintain more stable blood levels of ibuprofen, potentially reducing the peaks and troughs associated with immediate-release formulations. The result is more consistent pain relief without the need to remember multiple doses during busy days.

 

Storage and Handling Requirements

 

Store these capsules in their original packaging at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep them out of reach of children and do not use after the expiry date printed on the packaging.

The prolonged release coating is designed to remain intact until the capsule reaches your digestive system. Do not crush, chew, or break the capsules as this will interfere with the controlled release mechanism and may cause side effects.

This product is a medicine. Speak to your doctor or pharmacist before using if you have an underlying medical condition or are taking other medicines.

 

Recommended Dosage for Adults and Children Over 12

Take one capsule every 12 hours as needed for pain relief. Do not exceed two capsules in any 24-hour period. Swallow the capsules whole with water - do not crush, chew, or break them as this will affect the prolonged release mechanism.

You can take these capsules with or without food, though taking them with food may help reduce the risk of stomach irritation. If you forget a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it is nearly time for your next dose.

Important Administration Guidelines

Do not use these capsules for more than 10 days for pain relief unless directed by your doctor. If your symptoms persist or worsen, consult your healthcare provider for further evaluation and alternative treatment options.

Children under 12 years should not use this product. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a history of stomach ulcers, heart problems, or kidney disease, speak to your pharmacist or doctor before taking these capsules.
