  • What Midrid is and what it is used for

    Midrid 325mg/65mg Capsules (hereinafter referred to as Midrid) is used for the treatment of migraine and throbbing headaches. Midrid belongs to a group of medicines called analgesics which are used for the relief of pain. The active ingredients in Midrid each work in a different way to stop the pain. The throbbing pain sometimes felt during a migraine is linked to swollen blood vessels (vasodilation) in the head. Paracetamol works directly on the pain, whereas isometheptene returns the blood vessels to normal and as a result helps to take away the pain.
  • How to take Midrid

    Always take Midrid exactly as your doctor has told you. You should check with your doctor or pharmacist if you are not sure.

     

    Adults

    If you have any signs that you are going to get a migraine, take the initial dose of Midrid as soon as you get these warning signs. You may be able to prevent it getting to the headache stage.

    Swallow two capsules of Midrid with a drink of water as soon as you know you are getting a migraine. If you still have your migraine an hour later, take another capsule. Continue taking a capsule every hour until your migraine has gone, up to a maximum of five capsules in 12 hours.

    If you still have a migraine 12 hours after you started taking Midrid, you can take one more course of treatment. That is, two capsules to start with followed by one capsule every hour, if needed, up to a maximum of five capsules.

    After this, you should ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice.

    Remember, you must not take more than give capsules in 12 hours.

     

    Children

    Midrid is not recommended for use in children.

     

    If you take more Midrid than you should

    If you take more than the correct number of capsules (an overdose) it is very important that you go to the nearest casualty department immediately, even if you feel well because of the risk of delayed serious liver damage. Take the carton of Midrid with you even if it is empty.

     

    If you forget to take Midrid

    If you still have a migraine and you forget to take a capsule at the correct time (i.e., later than one hour after the previous dose), take it as soon as you remember. You must then wait another hour before taking a further dose, if your migraine has not gone. Do not take a double dose to make up for a forgotten dose.
