Frequently Asked Questions
What is MEFTAGESIC DS SUSP used for?
MEFTAGESIC DS Suspension is commonly used to relieve pain and reduce fever in children. It is especially effective for mild to moderate pain such as headaches, toothaches, muscle aches, and pain due to colds or flu.
How does MEFTAGESIC DS SUSP work?
This medicine contains two active ingredients: mefenamic acid (a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, NSAID) and paracetamol (acetaminophen). Mefenamic acid reduces inflammation and pain, while paracetamol lowers fever and also helps relieve pain.
What is the usual dosage for children?
The exact dose depends on the child's age, weight, and the severity of symptoms. Always follow your doctor’s instructions or the dosage guidelines provided on the packaging. Do not exceed the recommended dose.
What are the possible side effects?
Common side effects may include nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, diarrhea, and dizziness. Rare but serious side effects can include allergic reactions, skin rashes, or signs of gastrointestinal bleeding (such as black stools or vomiting blood). Contact your doctor if any unusual or severe symptoms occur.
Is MEFTAGESIC DS SUSP safe during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
This medicine is generally not recommended for use during pregnancy or breastfeeding unless specifically prescribed by a doctor. Always consult your healthcare provider before using any medication if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
Can MEFTAGESIC DS SUSP be taken with other medications?
Some medicines can interact with MEFTAGESIC DS SUSP, including other painkillers (especially other NSAIDs), blood thinners, and certain antibiotics. Inform your doctor about all the medicines your child is taking to avoid potential interactions.
What precautions should be taken while using MEFTAGESIC DS SUSP?
- Do not use in children with known allergies to mefenamic acid, paracetamol, or other NSAIDs.
- Avoid use in children with a history of stomach ulcers, bleeding disorders, or severe kidney/liver problems.
- Use with caution in children with asthma.
What should I do if a dose is missed?
If you miss a dose, give it as soon as you remember. If it's almost time for the next scheduled dose, skip the missed dose. Do not double up to make up for a missed dose.
How should MEFTAGESIC DS SUSP be stored?
Store the suspension at room temperature, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep the bottle tightly closed and out of reach of children. Do not use the medicine after the expiry date indicated on the packaging.
