Solpadeine Plus Information
What are Solpadeine Plus Tablets?
Solpadeine Plus Tablets are for the short-term treatment of acute, moderate pain when other painkillers have not worked. Wait at least four hours after taking any other painkiller before you take this medicine.
Solpadeine Plus Tablets are intended to alleviate the symptoms of:
- Migraine
- Dental Pain
- Backache
- Headache
- Period Pain
- Rheumatic Pain
Solpadeine Plus contains the active ingredients paracetamol, codeine and caffeine. Paracetamol is an effective pain reliever whereas codeine works by blocking pain messages from reaching the brain.
The caffeine contained in Solpadeine Plus is used to improve the effectiveness of paracetamol while also counteracting drowsiness, which is an unwanted side effect some people may experience when taking codeine.
Solpadeine Plus is suitable for use in people over the age of 12 years who are unable to manage their pain using paracetamol, ibuprofen or aspirin, alone.
Solpadeine Plus should only be taken for 3 consecutive days due to the addictive nature of codeine, which is part of a group of medications called opioid analgesics. If after 3 days you continue to be unable to manage your pain with paracetamol, ibuprofen or aspirin, talk to your doctor or pharmacist for further advice.
Solpadeine Plus and headaches
Solpadeine Plus is effective in the short-term treatment of headaches, but should not be used for more than 3 consecutive days and only when the headache can not be managed using paracetamol, ibuprofen or aspirin alone.
Some people may experience headaches as a side-effect of the use of Solpadeine Plus. The overuse of painkillers to control headaches can also cause symptoms to worsen.
Headaches can have many causes therefore if you are relying on painkillers to ease headaches for more than 10 days you should seek advice from your doctor or pharmacist.
Solpadeine Plus side effects
As with all medication some people will experience side effects when taking Solpadeine Plus. The side effects experienced may vary from person to person. If you are concerned about side effects speak to your doctor or pharmacist.
The most common side effects, affecting around 1 in 100 people are:
- Constipation
- Feeling sick or vomiting
- Feeling sleepy
- Headache

Solpadeine Plus warnings
Solpadeine Plus should not be taken by children under the age of 12 years as this may result in breathing difficulties.
If you are currently taking any prescribed medication, especially:
- Antiemetics (for nausea or vomiting)
- Medication to lower cholesterol
- Antidepressants or anticoagulants (blood thinners)
You should seek advice from your doctor or pharmacist before taking this medication.
Precautions should be taken when using products containing codeine. Codeine is changed into morphine in the liver by enzymes. In some rare cases, certain people carry a variation of this particular enzyme that results in a significantly larger amount of morphine being produced.
If you experience any of the following symptoms after taking Solpadeine Plus, stop taking it and seek medical advice straight away:
- Slow or shallow breathing
- Confusion
- Sleepiness
- Small pupils
Solpadeine Plus in pregnancy and breastfeeding
Talk to your doctor before taking Solpadeine Plus Tablets if you are pregnant. Do not take Solpadeine Plus Tablets while you are breastfeeding. Codeine and morphine pass into breast milk

If you experience any of the following signs or symptoms of addiction you should speak to a doctor or pharmacist:

- Feeling unwell when cutting down or missing a dose (withdrawal)
- Continuing to take Solpadeine for longer than is recommended even when you no longer experience pain
- Hiding your consumption of Solpadeine from others
- Changes in appearance, social withdrawal and isolation
Solpadeine Plus and driving
Under the Drug Driving Law, it is now an offence to drive in England, Scotland and Wales if the prescribed medication affects your ability to drive safely. If you are concerned about how this drug might affect you, consult with your doctor or pharmacist.
