Introduction
Asomef P Syrup contains two active ingredients, Mefenamic acid and paracetamol, which belong to a common class of medicines known as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). It helps to lower body temperature (fever) and reduce pain and inflammation (redness and swelling) both in infants and children.
Directions for Use
Maintain a log of your child's temperature. If you do not see any improvement, contact your child's doctor for advice. Keep a track of the dose and the frequency in which you have given this medicine to your child. This will help prevent overdosing.
How it works
Asomef P Syrup contains Mefenamic acid and paracetamol as its active ingredients. Both these ingredients are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Asomef P Syrup works by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers that cause fever, pain, and inflammation (redness and swelling).
Quick Tips
Do not take it with any other medicine containing paracetamol (drugs for pain/fever or cough-and-cold) without asking your doctor first. Maintain a log of your child's temperature. If you do not see any improvement, contact your child's doctor for advice. Keep a track of the dose and the frequency in which you have given this medicine to your child. This will help prevent overdosing. Practice self-care tips like giving plenty of fluids to your child, giving your child a balanced diet, encouraging your child to have optimum sleep, and stopping the medicine and consulting your child's doctor in case your child exhibits allergic rash or stomach pain soon after taking this medicine.
