Experts in period pain
Feminax continually improve their product range and the development of new products means we have now discontinued Period Pain Capsules. 
Feminax is an effective painkiller for women and young adults aged 12+ who suffer from stomach cramps and other symptoms of period pain such as headaches and leg and back pain.
You can take 1 or 2 Feminax Period Pain Capsules every 4-6 hours but never take more than 8 capsules in 24 hours. Do not use for longer
than 3 days.
Taking codeine regularly for a long time can lead to addiction and taking a painkiller too often or for too long can make headaches worse. If you need to use Feminax Period Pain Capsules for more than 3 days at a time, you should see your doctor or pharmacist.
A Feminax Period Pain Capsule contains 8mg of codeine phosphate and 500mg of paracetamol.
