Ideal for children and adults, this suspension is suitable for conditions such as headaches, muscle pain, and dysmenorrhea. Review dosage recommendations, potential side effects, contraindications, and drug interactions to ensure safe usage.

Composition:

• Mefenamic Acid: 100 mg

Uses: 

MIPPO P DS Suspension is indicated for:

Mefenamic Acid is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that works by inhibiting the synthesis of prostaglandins, thus reducing pain and inflammation. Paracetamol acts centrally in the brain to alleviate pain and reduce fever, providing a complementary effect for effective symptom relief.
