Can I stop taking Analda Tablet when my pain is relieved?
If you are taking Analda Tablet for long-term pain relief, it is essential to continue taking it as directed by your physician. If you are using it for short-term pain relief, you can discontinue it once your pain is relieved.
Can the use of Analda Tablet cause nausea and vomiting?
Yes, Analda Tablet may cause nausea and vomiting. Taking it with milk, food, or antacids can help prevent nausea. Avoid consuming fatty or fried foods with this medication. If you experience vomiting, drink plenty of water or other fluids in small, frequent sips. If vomiting persists and you notice signs of dehydration, such as dark-colored and strong-smelling urine and a low frequency of urination, consult your doctor. Do not take any other medication without consulting your doctor.
Can the use of Analda Tablet cause dizziness?
Yes, Analda Tablet may cause dizziness (feeling faint, weak, unsteady, or lightheaded) in some patients. If you experience dizziness, it is recommended to rest for a while and resume once you feel better.
Can the use of Analda Tablet cause damage to kidneys?
Yes, the long-term use of Analda Tablet can cause damage to the kidneys. Normal kidneys produce prostaglandins, which protect them from damage.

Can Analda Tablet be taken with Vitamin B-complex?
Yes, Analda Tablet can be taken with Vitamin B-complex preparations. While Analda Tablet helps to relieve pain, Vitamin B-complex can help to correct the vitamin deficiency that might be causing the underlying painful condition.
