Description
MEFTAL SPAS (10 tablets) is a combination medication commonly used to treat pain associated with muscle spasms and inflammation. It contains two active ingredients: Mefenamic Acid and Dicyclomine, which work together to provide fast and effective relief from a variety of painful conditions, especially those involving muscle cramps or spasms.
-
Mefenamic Acid is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins, chemicals in the body responsible for pain, inflammation, and fever. This helps reduce the pain and inflammation caused by conditions like menstrual cramps, arthritis, and muscle pain.
-
Dicyclomine is an antispasmodic agent that works by relaxing the muscles in the gastrointestinal tract and other smooth muscles. It is particularly effective in relieving cramps and spasms associated with digestive issues, menstrual pain, and muscle stiffness.
Key benefits of MEFTAL SPAS include:
- Pain Relief: It helps alleviate pain from menstrual cramps, abdominal pain, muscle spasms, and other conditions where muscle contractions or inflammation are involved.
- Anti-inflammatory Action: Mefenamic Acid reduces swelling and pain caused by inflammation, making it effective for conditions like muscle pain or minor arthritis.
- Spasm Relief: Dicyclomine helps reduce muscle spasms, particularly in the abdomen or digestive system, providing comfort for individuals experiencing cramping or tension.
MEFTAL SPAS is particularly effective for menstrual pain (dysmenorrhea), abdominal cramps, gastrointestinal spasms, and muscle tension. It is commonly prescribed for women experiencing severe menstrual cramps, as the combination of pain relief and antispasmodic action provides significant relief.
Dosage and Usage: The typical dosage of MEFTAL SPAS is one tablet taken 2 to 3 times a day, depending on the severity of the pain and the recommendation of a healthcare provider. The tablet should be swallowed whole with a glass of water and can be taken with food to minimize stomach irritation.
Potential Side Effects: While MEFTAL SPAS is effective for pain relief, it may cause some side effects in certain individuals, including:
- Stomach upset or nausea
- Dizziness or drowsiness
- Dry mouth or blurred vision (due to Dicyclomine)
- Allergic reactions (rare)
If any serious side effects, such as severe abdominal pain, swelling, or difficulty breathing, occur, the medication should be discontinued, and medical attention should be sought immediately.
Precautions: MEFTAL SPAS should be used with caution in individuals with a history of:
- Stomach ulcers or gastrointestinal bleeding
- Liver or kidney problems
- High blood pressure
- Heart disease
It is also important to avoid alcohol while taking MEFTAL SPAS, as this may increase the risk of gastrointestinal irritation or bleeding. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult a healthcare provider before using this medication, as some components of MEFTAL SPAS may not be safe during pregnancy.
For the best results, MEFTAL SPAS should be used as part of a comprehensive pain management plan, including rest and lifestyle modifications to address the underlying causes of muscle spasms or cramps.
