Composition of Tolfen

Uses of Tolfen
- Fever
- Headache
- Body ache
- Mild to moderate pain
- Pain
- Inflammation
- Arthritis
- Period pain
Benefits of Tolfen
- In Fever
- Tolfen brings a raised temperature down by acting on the part of the brain that controls body heat, easing the chills, aches and discomfort that come with a fever.
- In Headache
- Tolfen relieves a headache by blocking the chemical messengers in the brain that signal pain, usually within the hour.
- In Body ache
- Tolfen eases the generalised aching of viral illness, overexertion or fever so you can rest and move more comfortably.
- In Mild to moderate pain
- Tolfen relieves everyday pain such as toothache, period pain and sprains. It is gentle on the stomach, which is why it is usually the first painkiller a doctor suggests.
- In Pain
- Tolfen blocks the chemicals that cause pain at the site of an injury or inflammation, giving relief that is often stronger than paracetamol for pain with swelling.
- In Inflammation
- Tolfen reduces the swelling, redness, heat and stiffness of an inflamed joint or injured tissue, so movement is easier.
- In Arthritis
- Tolfen eases the pain and morning stiffness of arthritis, so joints move more freely and daily tasks become easier.
- In Period pain
- Tolfen reduces the chemicals that make the womb cramp during a period, which is why it works well for period pain when taken as the pain begins.
How Tolfen works
This medicine combines 2 active ingredients: Paracetamol and Polmacoxib. Paracetamol reduces fever and relieves pain by acting on the parts of the brain that regulate temperature and register pain. Polmacoxib blocks the chemicals your body makes at a site of injury or inflammation, which reduces pain, swelling and fever.
How to take Tolfen
Use this medicine as your doctor has directed. Follow the dose and the duration written on your prescription.
Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.
Missed dose and overdose
If you miss a dose
Take it as soon as you remember. If your next dose is almost due, skip the one you missed — never take two doses together to catch up.
If you take too much
An overdose of this medicine can cause severe and sometimes fatal liver damage, often with no symptoms at all for the first day. It can cause stomach bleeding, kidney failure, drowsiness and fits. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

- Nausea
- Rash
- Indigestion
- Stomach pain
- Heartburn
- Dizziness
- Swelling of the ankles and feet
Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.

Warnings and precautions
Never exceed the daily maximum printed on the pack. Paracetamol overdose damages the liver, and the damage can be silent for a day or two before it becomes serious. Check every other medicine you are taking. Paracetamol is in a very large number of cold, flu and pain combinations, and the doses add together. If you drink alcohol regularly, or have liver disease, ask your doctor what daily limit is safe for you. See a doctor if fever lasts more than three days, or pain more than five. Take it with or just after food, and for the shortest time that works. Stop and seek urgent care for black or tarry stools, vomiting blood, or severe stomach pain — this group can cause bleeding from the stomach. Long or high-dose use raises the risk of heart attack, stroke and kidney injury, particularly in older people and those already at risk. Avoid if you are dehydrated or have an illness with vomiting or loose motions — the kidneys are vulnerable then. Must be avoided in the last three months of pregnancy.
Do not take Tolfen if
Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack. Not for people with severe liver disease, except under medical supervision. Not for people with an active stomach ulcer, severe kidney or heart failure, or asthma triggered by aspirin or anti-inflammatory painkillers. Not in the third trimester of pregnancy.
Interactions with other medicines
Regular alcohol use increases the risk of liver injury. Tell your doctor if you are on warfarin — regular high-dose paracetamol can affect it. Combining with a blood thinner or aspirin sharply raises the bleeding risk. Reduces the effect of blood pressure medicines and water tablets, and together with them can harm the kidneys. Never take two anti-inflammatory painkillers at the same time.
How to store Tolfen
Store below 30°C in the original pack, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep out of the reach of children.
Quick tips for Tolfen
- Take the lowest dose that works, and leave the stated gap between doses.
- Seek help immediately after a suspected overdose, even if you feel completely well.
- Treatment works best when it is early.
- Use the lowest dose for the shortest period.
- If you need a painkiller regularly, see your doctor rather than continuing on your own.
- Paracetamol is the safer choice for simple fever and headache.
