Meftal-P Suspension – Pain and Fever Relief for Children

Overview:
Meftal-P Suspension is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used in children to reduce fever, relieve pain, and decrease inflammation. It works by inhibiting the chemical messengers in the body that trigger pain, swelling, and fever.

Administration Instructions:

Give the dose orally as prescribed by your child’s doctor.

It can be administered before or after meals, but taking it after food may help prevent stomach discomfort.

Follow the prescribed timing and dosage carefully. Do not give extra doses to achieve faster relief.

If your child vomits within 30 minutes of taking the medicine, repeat the dose.

Nausea and vomiting

These effects are usually temporary and tend to disappear as the body adjusts. Consult your doctor if they persist or cause discomfort.

Inform the doctor if your child has any allergies, heart problems, birth defects, liver or kidney issues, lung disease, or bleeding disorders.

Provide a full list of all medications your child is taking to help the doctor adjust dosing safely.
