Many types of panadol in the market
1) Panadol 500mg- Acetaminophen 500mg RM 2.00 for 10 tablets
2) Panadol Extend- Acetaminophen 665mg RM 3.30 for 6 tablets
3) Panadol Actifast- Acetaminophen 500mg RM 3.50 for 8 tablets
4) Panadol 650mg- Acetaminophen 650mg RM 1.00 for 10 tablets
5) Panadol Soluble- Acetaminophen 500mg RM 3.00 for 8 tablets
Are they the same?
Ask the pharmacist
1) Wat is the difference between Panadol 500mg, Panadol Actifast and Panadol Soluble? No difference, just the solubility rate or how fast the tablet soluble in the stomach for absorption purposes. In order for our body to absorb the medicine, the tablet need to be soluble first. The faster the tablet dissolves, the faster we can see the effect ie. body feels less pain and fever reduced.
2) So, why r we paying more for the same thing? Becoz the packing is nice? See the Panadol Actifast packing ... Don't u think it stand out the most? See the light? Wah...so bright.....
i like the packing also...
But for those who cannot afford Panadol Actifast...just buy normal Panadol 500mg and chew it before u swallow. i bet the effect is the same. Hehe.....
3) How about Panadol Extend? It contains 665mg of Acetaminophen. Actually i dont think there is much difference between Panadol Extend 665mg and Panadol 650mg. Difference of 15mg is negligible. This time i like the design, the picture....Hehe....

During the panadol extend launching, there is one so called DR/PhD was invited to give speech about this panadol extend.
According to her, this panadol extend work better or as good as CELEBREX. No need to take celebrex, take panadol extend will do...
