Composition:-
Mefenamic acid 50mg + Paracetamol 125mg
Uses:-
Mefenamic acid + paracetamol suspension is a combination medication used to relieve pain and reduce fever. Mefenamic acid belongs to a class of drugs called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) which work by reducing the production of certain chemicals in the body that cause inflammation, pain, and fever. Paracetamol, also known as acetaminophen, is a pain reliever and fever reducer that works by blocking the production of certain chemicals in the brain that signal pain and fever. Together, these two medications provide effective relief from mild to moderate pain, such as headaches, muscle aches, menstrual cramps, toothaches, and pain associated with colds and flu.
Side Effects:-
While mefenamic acid + paracetamol suspension is generally safe when used as directed, it may cause some side effects in certain individuals. Common side effects may include nausea, stomach upset, heartburn, dizziness, drowsiness, and headache. In some cases, more serious side effects such as stomach ulcers, bleeding in the stomach or intestines, liver damage, kidney problems, allergic reactions, and skin rashes may occur. It is important to seek medical attention if any of these side effects persist or worsen.
Indication:-
Mefenamic acid + paracetamol suspension is indicated for the relief of mild to moderate pain, including headaches, muscle aches, menstrual cramps, toothaches, and pain associated with colds and flu. It is also used to reduce fever. The suspension is typically administered orally and should be taken as directed by a healthcare professional or as indicated on the product label. It is important not to exceed the recommended dosage or duration of treatment to avoid the risk of side effects. If pain or fever persists or worsens despite treatment, consult a healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
