MECHANISM OF ACTION :

Drotaverine is an antispasmodic that reduces calcium reuptake by the cells, thereby correcting the calcium levels in the body and relieves contractions associated with smooth muscles.

Mefenamic acid is an NSAID which works by blocking the effect of a chemical messenger in the body, known as cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes that make another chemical prostaglandin (PG). These prostaglandins are produced at injury sites and cause pain and swelling.By blocking COX enzymes’ effect, lesser PGs are produced, which reduces mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site.

Together, DROTAVERINE+MEFENAMIC ACID helps in relieving pain.

USUAL DOSAGE : 1 Tablet twice a day with food for 7 days or as directed by the physician.
