Meftagesic Syrup 60 ml belongs to a group of medicines called Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) used for the treatment of pain, inflammation, migraine headache, period pain, heavy bleeding during periods, muscle pain, tooth pain, joint pain, pain after surgery, ear pain, fever, flu, osteoarthritis, and rheumatoid arthritis. Pain is a symptom triggered by the nervous system, causing uncomfortable sensations in the body.
Meftagesic Syrup 60 ml is a combination of two drugs, namely: Mefenamic acid and Paracetamol. Meftagesic Syrup 60 ml blocks the effect of a chemical messenger known as cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzyme that makes other chemical prostaglandins. By blocking the effect of COX enzymes, lesser prostaglandins are produced. This helps reduce mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site.

In some cases, Meftagesic Syrup 60 ml may cause common side-effects such as nausea, vomiting, indigestion, heartburn, and diarrhoea.

Avoid consuming alcohol with Meftagesic Syrup 60 ml as it could lead to increased dizziness and may increase the risk of stomach bleeding.

Pain: Pain is a symptom triggered by the nervous system, causing uncomfortable sensations in the body. Pain may be dull or sharp; it might be constant or may come and go. The tolerance level of pain might vary from person to person. Pain can be generalised (overall body aches) or localized (affecting a specific area of the body). The common causes of pain include headache, muscle strain, cramps, cuts, bone fractures, and arthritis.
Osteoarthritis: It is a joint disease in which the two ends of the joints come together due to the breakdown of a protective covering called cartilage.
