Can Meftal Spas be used to treat a fever?

Asked by Female, 24 · 2 hours ago

While Meftal Spas can lower a fever, it is not recommended for this purpose. Meftal Spas is a combination of Mefenamic Acid (which reduces pain and fever) and Dicyclomine (an antispasmodic that relieves muscle spasms). It is primarily used for menstrual cramps and abdominal pain. Taking it for a simple fever exposes you to Dicyclomine unnecessarily, which can cause side effects like dry mouth, dizziness, or blurred vision. For treating a fever, it is much safer and more appropriate to use a single-ingredient medication like plain Paracetamol. Please consult a doctor if your fever persists.
