Boska Tablets: Fast-Acting Relief for Pain and Fever

Boska is one of Nigeria’s most trusted dual-action analgesics, specially formulated to provide "sharp relief" from various types of pain and fever. Manufactured by Dexa Medica and distributed by Orange Drugs Limited, Boska combines the power of paracetamol with a caffeine boost to help you get back on your feet faster.

How Boska Works

The effectiveness of Boska lies in its two active ingredients:

• Paracetamol (500mg): A reliable analgesic and antipyretic that reduces pain and lowers high body temperatures.
• Caffeine (30mg): Acts as an adjuvant, enhancing the pain-relieving effects of paracetamol and helping it work more efficiently. It also helps combat the fatigue often associated with pain.

Common Uses and Indications

Boska Tablets are widely used in Nigeria for the management of:

• Headaches and Migraines: Provides quick relief from tension and throbbing head pain.
• Fever and Body Aches: Effective for reducing high temperatures, especially those associated with colds or malaria.
• Menstrual Cramps (Period Pain): Helps ease discomfort during the menstrual cycle.
• Toothaches: Targeted relief for dental pain.
• Muscle and Joint Pain: Often used for "waist pain" and general muscular discomfort.

Dosage and Administration

For adults and children over 12 years of age:

• Take 2 tablets every 4 to 6 hours as needed.
• Do not exceed 8 tablets in any 24-hour period.
• It is recommended to take the tablets with water. If symptoms persist after 3 days, please consult a doctor or a GoMed pharmacist.

Safety and Precautions

• Ulcer Patients: Unlike Ibuprofen or Aspirin, Boska is not an NSAID and is generally considered safe for people with stomach ulcers.
• Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: While paracetamol is common, the caffeine content means you should consult your healthcare provider or a GoMed pharmacist before use.
• Alcohol: Avoid excessive alcohol consumption while taking paracetamol-based medications.

For professional advice on managing pain or fever, you can always reach out to a GoMed pharmacist.
