Is it safe to take Nimeka Plus for a fever, as it is the only medicine I have available at the office?

Asked by Male, 30 · 7 days ago

Nimeka Plus contains Nimesulide and Paracetamol. While it will reduce your fever, it is not recommended as a first-line treatment. Nimesulide carries a risk of liver toxicity and is restricted in many countries. If this is your only option at the office, you may take a single dose, but only after eating a meal to avoid stomach upset. Avoid it entirely if you have a history of liver, kidney, or stomach issues. For your safety, it is highly recommended to get plain Paracetamol (Acetaminophen) from a nearby pharmacy instead, as it is a much safer option for fever.
