[Designated Category 2 Drug] BAFULIN PREMIUM
Bufferin
Overview
This product combines multiple active ingredients for pain relief and fever reduction. While Ibuprofen and Acetaminophen are well-established analgesics, their individual doses are moderate, relying on the synergistic effect. The inclusion of caffeine further enhances pain relief and provides a stimulating effect. However, the presence of Allylisopropylacetylurea, an outdated sedative with known toxicity, raises significant safety concerns and complicates the overall effectiveness profile.
The Good
Provides multi-modal pain relief and fever reduction from Ibuprofen and Acetaminophen.
Caffeine anhydrous boosts alertness and may enhance analgesic effects.
Dried aluminum hydroxide gel may help reduce gastric distress associated with Ibuprofen.
The Bad
Risk of serious liver damage from Acetaminophen overdose.
Potential for gastrointestinal issues (nausea, dyspepsia, ulcers, bleeding) with Ibuprofen.
Combination of NSAID (Ibuprofen) and Acetaminophen increases risk of kidney and liver issues.
