Reviews

Jeanne
Taking into account the indications for use of the drug, which are reduced to removing the heat and anesthesia, I keep it in the home medicine cabinet for such cases and use it without a doctor's prescription.
It should be noted that I have been using it for even a year with painful menstruation and at a temperature when the cold catches me by surprise. Not one time Panadol did not disappoint. Of course, for treatment, you should have other drugs on hand, but for the relief of these symptoms, these pills are just right.
