About Cuga S 50 mg/15 mg Capsule

Cuga S 50 mg/15 mg Capsule is used in the treatment of pain and inflammation associated with various conditions, such as bone or soft tissue injuries, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, dental pain, migraine and tension headaches, and menstrual pain (dysmenorrhea).
