Product Info

Nurofen Durance is the first ibuprofen medicated plaster in Ireland which offers 24 hours duration. It is a convenient and effective product for muscle and joint pain with stretchable and flexible design.

The active substance is ibuprofen. Ibuprofen belongs to a group of medicines called Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs), which work by changing how the body responds to pain, swelling and high temperature. The medicated plaster locally delivers ibuprofen continuously at the site of pain over 24 hours of application.

Directions for use

  • One dose is equal to one medicated plaster. The maximum dose for a single 24 hour period is one medicated plaster.
  • For cutaneous use on intact skin. It is recommended to carefully wash and dry the area to be treated before applying the plaster.
  • The plaster can be applied at any time during the day or night, but should be removed and a new plaster re-applied at the same time on the following day.
  • The plaster is flexible and conformable, and if necessary can be applied on or near a joint and will allow for normal movement.
