Meftal Spas Tablet

Meftal Spas tablet is an antispasmodic medicine. It contains a combination of dicyclomine and mefenamic acid. This medicine is used for relieving pain and spasm in the abdomen and during or before menses (periods). Meftal Spas work by blocking the action of certain chemicals responsible for pain and relaxing the smooth muscles. The dose and duration of the Meftal Spas tablet are decided by your doctor. Period pain is very common among women and it is also known as dysmenorrhea. The pain is most often characterised by cramps, which are throbbing that can spread to the back and thigh. The pain can start a day or two before your period. It normally lasts for 2-3 days, but in some women, it can last longer. You should not use this medicine for more than seven days. If the pain persists, consult your doctor. This medicine should preferably be taken with food or after food. Meftal Spas should not be given to children below 12 years of age. It is advised to give them the paediatric formulations of this combination under medical supervision.
