Is it safe to take Meftal Spas for a stomach ache that has lasted for two days, or should I take a different medicine?

Asked by Male, 38 · 8 days ago

While Meftal Spas (which contains dicyclomine and mefenamic acid) can help relieve abdominal cramps, using it for a stomach ache that has lasted for two days is not ideal without a proper diagnosis. Since mefenamic acid is an anti-inflammatory, it can sometimes irritate your stomach lining, potentially worsening the pain if it is acid-related. I gently recommend avoiding self-medication and consulting a healthcare professional to identify the exact cause. In the meantime, try sipping warm water and eating light, bland meals.
