Indications & Uses
Tylen Plus is indicated for:
Pharmacology
This is a combination of Paracetamol and Caffeine. Paracetamol relieves pain and brings down fever, and it has only a weak anti-inflammatory action. Caffeine is an alkaloid, a xanthine derivative similar to theophylline. When Caffeine associates with Paracetamol at the molecular level, it increases the solubility of Paracetamol and its ability to pass across cell membranes. Caffeine also raises the pain threshold and the tolerance of pain. On top of this, Caffeine has its own power to raise vessel tone in the brain, which gives a further benefit in treating migraine and headache.
