Usage / Instructions Expand

How to take Nurofen Plus tablets:

Nurofen Plus should be used at the lowest effective dose for the shortest period of time necessary to relieve symptoms. The duration of treatment should be limited to 3 days and if no effective pain relief is achieved, please consult your doctor. 

  • Adults, the elderly and children over 12 years of age: One or two tablets every four to six hours.
  • Children aged 12-18 years: One or two tablets every four to six hours. 
  • Children under 12 years: Nurofen plus (which contains Codeine) should not be used in children below the age of 12 years.
  • Elderly: No special dosage modifications are required for elderly patients, unless renal or hepatic function is impaired, in which case dosage should be assessed individually.

Do not take more than 6 tablets in 24 hours. Leave at least four hours between doses and do not take more than 1200mg in any 24-hour period.

If you take more Nurofen Plus tablets than you should, seek immediate medical advice in the event of an overdose, even if you feel well.
