The Science Behind Optizorb Technology
Optizorb technology
The patented delivery system is associated with 25% faster absorption, delivering paracetamol more efficiently1,2# to the body, and relieving pain while remaining gentle on the stomach.
The three key ingredients within the Optizorb technology work together to enable fast disintegration and release of the active ingredient:
- Calcium carbonate reacts with stomach acid to release paracetamol3
- Alginic acid draws fluid into the tablet causing it to swell and break up3
- Crospovidone greatly facilitates disintegration3
Basics of Optizorb technology
This is a unique technology that helps increase the rate that Panadol tablets break down in the stomach, for faster absorption of paracetamol.1,2,4*
The absorption of paracetamol primarily occurs in the upper small intestine. The rate of absorption is limited by factors such as the process of tablet disintegration and dissolution in the stomach.
Optizorb technology increases the speed of tablet disintegration.1*
