Melgesic 250mg Capsule 10s (Strip)

Melgesic 250mg Capsule is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) from the fenamate group, with mefenamic acid as its active ingredient, taken orally to ease pain and inflammation. As an NSAID, it works by reducing certain chemical messengers in the body responsible for pain and swelling, but this same mechanism means it can affect the stomach lining and, in some cases, kidney function with prolonged use. Common experiences include stomach discomfort, heartburn, diarrhoea, or drowsiness, so it's generally recommended to take it with food. If you haven't used an NSAID capsule before, it's worth knowing that short-term use, typically no more than seven days, is standard practice for this particular medicine unless your doctor advises otherwise.

The typical adult dose is one capsule (250mg) three times daily with meals, generally for no longer than seven days, unless your doctor advises a different course.

Take Melgesic 250mg Capsule with meals or a light snack to help reduce the chance of stomach upset, swallowing the capsule whole with water. Avoid lying down immediately after taking it, and take it at consistent times each day as directed.

Melgesic 250mg Capsule typically remains stable for around 24 to 36 months when stored unopened. Always check the expiry date printed on the packaging before use.

Mefenamic acid 250mg.

Should not be used by individuals with active peptic ulcers, a history of gastrointestinal bleeding, severe kidney or liver disease, or known hypersensitivity to mefenamic acid, aspirin, or other NSAIDs. It's also generally avoided in late pregnancy and by individuals with certain heart conditions; always disclose your full medical history before use.

Combining this medicine with other NSAIDs, aspirin, or blood-thinning medicines can increase the risk of stomach bleeding or bruising. Alcohol may also raise the risk of stomach irritation, so it's best limited during treatment. Always inform your doctor or pharmacist of all medicines and supplements you're currently taking.
