Frequently asked questions
What is Elonac-TH Tablet?

Is Elonac-TH Tablet safe to use?
Elonac-TH Tablet is generally considered safe for most patients. However, potential side effects may include nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, heartburn, diarrhea, and other rare adverse effects. If you experience any persistent problems, consult your doctor.
Can I stop using Elonac-TH Tablet when the pain is relieved?
Elonac-TH Tablet is typically used for short periods and can be discontinued once pain relief is achieved. However, if your doctor has prescribed continued use, it's important to follow their instructions.
Can Elonac-TH Tablet cause dizziness?
Yes, some patients experience dizziness (feeling faint, weak, unsteady or lightheaded) after taking Elonac-TH Tablet. If you feel dizzy or lightheaded, it's best to rest and resume normal activities when you feel better.
Are there any contraindications for using Elonac-TH Tablet?
Elonac-TH Tablet is not advised for individuals with known allergies to painkillers or any components of this medication. It should also be avoided in patients with a history of stomach ulcers, active or recurrent stomach ulcers/bleeding. It's also recommended against use in patients with liver or kidney disease, as well as those with heart failure and high blood pressure.
Can Elonac-TH Tablet be taken alongside Vitamin B-complex?
Yes, Elonac-TH Tablet can be combined with Vitamin B-complex preparations. This is because while Elonac-TH helps manage pain, Vitamin B-complex may help address vitamin deficiencies that might contribute to your symptoms.
Can Elonac-TH Tablet cause kidney damage?
Long-term use of Elonac-TH Tablet can potentially lead to kidney damage. Prostaglandins, a chemical produced naturally by the kidneys, protect them from damage. However, painkillers decrease prostaglandin levels in the body, increasing the risk of long-term kidney damage. It's important to avoid pain medication for those with pre-existing kidney disease.
Will taking higher doses of Elonac-TH Tablet be more effective?
No, increasing the dosage will not enhance the effectiveness of Elonac-TH Tablet. It may potentially lead to increased side effects. Consult your doctor for re-evaluation if you experience worsening symptoms.
