Medicinal Benefits of Mouse P 500mg/325mg Tablet

MEFENAMIC ACID+PARACETAMOL is a combination of two Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAID's), namely: Mefenamic acid and Paracetamol. MEFENAMIC ACID+PARACETAMOL is used to treat 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. MEFENAMIC ACID+PARACETAMOL blocks the effect of a chemical messenger known as cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzyme that makes another chemical 'prostaglandins' (PG). These prostaglandins are produced at injury sites and cause pain and swelling. By blocking the effect of COX enzymes, lesser PGs are produced. This helps in reducing mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site.
