Excedrin Extra Strength Review Summary

Excedrin Extra Strength is an effective pain reliever, especially for those who suffer from migraine pain. Rose1077 says, "I have tried just about every over the counter pain reliever on the market - Tylenol, Advil, Aleve, Excedrin - and ONLY Excedrin can help relieve the pain." Kayboxy agrees that Excedrin provides effective pain relief, but warns "not to take it on an empty stomach." Reviewers also warn that this product contains caffeine, which helps it work fast, but some may not react well to it. Keep reading for more pain relief options.

an alergy sufferer

I don’t suffer from headaches very much, but when I do, I will usually reach for one of an assortment of over the counter pain relievers to stop the pain. I usually pick Aleve or one of a few others, but another product that generally works well is Excedrin Extra Strength, an inexpensive pain reliever.

 

Pain Reliever Commentary:

 

Excedrin Extra Strength are used to relieve multiple types of pain. When it comes to pain, I generally experience nothing but headache pain but Excedrin Extra Strength is good for body aches, arthritis, muscle aches, menstrual cramps, toothaches, and more. Whatever...

You remember the original Excedrin commercials - where someone with their face all scrunched up in pain would say "I have a headache and its got Excedrin written all over it!" - it wasn't just a great tag line!  It was the truth.

I have been a migraine sufferer for over 15 years now and can not stand being on prescription pain killers to fight the pain.  The prescription pain killers leave me drowsy and feeling fuzzy-headed.  I have tried just about every over the counter pain reliever on the market - Tylenol, Advil, Aleve, Excedrin - and ONLY Excedrin can help relieve the pain associated with...

Just one Excedin extra strength tablet and the headache is gone . In most cases I never have to take another one.

I have tried just about everything I can buy over the counter for my headaches. Excedin extra strenght is the only thing I have found that gets rid of my sinus headaches, tension aches,  or just plain bad day aches.

Excedrin Extra Strenght packs a real punch for the price , They are priced reasonably. Less than most of the over the counter medicines that don't work,

Excedrin Extra Strenght Comes in a varity of sizes from single dose to economy size 500 sizes too, I buy the...

Excedrin Extra Stength is the ONLY medicine that I use when I get a headache.  Every few months I end up a migrane.  I had tried other brands of over-the-counter headache relief over the years.  None of them seem to help as much as Excedrin.  I love that Excedrin's pain control is consistent.  It ALWAYS helps!  It is carried in most pharmacies and grocery stores so it is easy to obtain.  I think it is a little more expensive than other generic store brands, but this product is worth the cost.  Also, it does contain caffiene.  However, I never find that I feel jittery or have trouble sleeping...

What do you usually take for your aches and pains or your worst migraine headache? Ever realize that they don’t work as you would expect? I have tried everything for migraine headaches and nagging aches and pains especially during sleep and nothing seemed to work until I tried Excedrin. It was like gold! Excedrin is a pain reliever that is a combination of acetaminophen, caffeine, and aspirin and comes in multiple varieties such as Extra Strength, Tension Headache, PM, Migraine, etc. Some of them are labeled for different types of pain and are the exact same dosage. It very affordable, yet the...

When we get a headache in our house we take Excedrin. It simply works. It also is good for body aches and minor pain from dental work and even minor surgery. A lot of people do not like to take asprin or caffine containing products but when I have a headache I want something that works. Why bother with the other products? My husband suffers from cluster headaches and has found that this is the only medication that will give him any kind of relief. I frequently get tension headaches and can get fairly quick relief from this product. I know that it comes in several types of product such as Migraine,...

excedrin extra strength is the best stuff i have ever used for getting ride of a headache. The only thing I have to suggest when taking this, is not to take it on an empty stomach. I have been using it for over 5 yrs and it is the only over the counter stuff that atctually works for me. Best of luck to anyone who tries it.

I take one every morning. If I don't, I will definitely get a migraine. Has worked for 30 years for me when nothing else does.
