“To reduce pain, take two tablets (藥片) with water, followed by one tablet every eight hours, as required. For night-time and early morning relief (減緩疼痛) take two tablets at bedtime. Do not take more than six tablets in twenty-four hours.
For children of six t twelve years old, give half the amount (量). For children under six years old, ask your doctor’s advice.
Reduce the amount if you suffer from restlessness or sleeplessness after taking the medicine.
