COMPOSITION COMPRISING ACETAMINOPHEN, CAFFEINE AND OPTIONALLY ASPIRIN TOGETHER WITH AN ALKALINE AGENT FOR ENHANCED ABSORPTION

摘要

The onset of activity of a first analgesic/antipyretic composition containing an analgesic/antipyretic effective amount of acetaminophen, caffeine and, optionally, aspirin is shortened by incorporating in the first composition an onset of analgesic/antipyretic activity shortening amount of at least one alkaline agent whereby a second composition is produced. The second composition being bioequivalent to the first composition but having a shorter onset of analgesic/antipyretic activity than the first composition.
