Is it safe to stay on Norgesic indefinitely?

21 Jun 2011

If you absolutely need it then it should be okay to take Norgesic long term ... however, it may cause side effects such as gastrointestinal side effects. Do discuss it with your doctor if you are using it long term.

Aspirin is in a class of drugs called salicylates. Aspirin works reducing substances in the body that cause pain and inflammation. It is used to reduce pain, inflammation, and fever.

Caffeine is used in this combination to increase the pain relieving effects of aspirin and orphenadrine.

Orphenadrine is a muscle relaxant. It works by blocking nerve impulses (or pain sensations) that are sent to the brain.
