extra strength

Higher dose formulation

Extra strength describes a product formulation with higher concentration or potency than the standard version: extra strength aspirin, extra strength antacid.

The term appears almost exclusively in marketing, particularly for over-the-counter medications and cleaning products.

It implies more active ingredient per dose, though the baseline "regular strength" is often arbitrary.
