How it works
Anafortan-MF 50mg/250mg Tablet is a combination of two medicines: Camylofin and Mefenamic Acid which relieve abdominal pain and cramps. Camylofin is an anti-cholinergic which relaxes the muscles in the stomach and gut (intestine) and stops sudden muscle contractions (spasms). Mefenamic Acid is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) which works by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers that cause pain and inflammation (redness and swelling).
