About LORNOXICAM(8MG) + PARACETAMOL(325MG)

Introduction

This medicine is a combination of two active ingredients: Lornoxicam (8mg) and Paracetamol (325mg). Lornoxicam belongs to a group of medicines called non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), while Paracetamol is a commonly used pain reliever and fever reducer. Together, they work to provide effective relief from pain and inflammation.

Uses

This combination medicine is commonly prescribed for the relief of moderate to severe pain associated with various conditions including: - Joint and muscle pain - Back pain and neck pain - Dental pain after procedures - Post-operative pain - Pain due to inflammation or injury - Headaches and migraines - Period pain (dysmenorrhea) - Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis symptoms

Benefits

The combination provides enhanced pain relief compared to single ingredients alone. Paracetamol reduces pain and fever quickly, while Lornoxicam targets inflammation and provides longer-lasting pain control. This dual action means effective relief at lower doses of each component, potentially reducing the risk of side effects. Patients typically experience improved comfort and mobility, allowing them to carry out daily activities more easily.

Side effects

Common side effects include nausea, indigestion, stomach pain, dizziness, and headache. Some patients may experience drowsiness, diarrhea, or constipation. Most side effects are mild and temporary, resolving as your body adjusts to the medicine. However, contact your doctor if you experience severe stomach pain, black stools, unusual bleeding or bruising, signs of allergy (rash, itching, swelling), or yellowing of skin or eyes.

How to use

Take this medicine exactly as prescribed by your doctor. It is usually taken with or after food to reduce stomach upset. Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water; do not crush or chew it. Do not exceed the recommended dose or duration of treatment. The dosage and frequency will be determined by your doctor based on your condition and response to treatment. Always follow your doctor's or pharmacist's instructions carefully.

How it works

This combination works through two different mechanisms. Lornoxicam blocks certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) in the body that cause pain, inflammation, and swelling. Paracetamol works in the brain to reduce pain signals and also acts on the temperature-regulating center to reduce fever. Together, they provide comprehensive pain relief by targeting multiple pain pathways, offering both anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects for better symptom control.

Safety advice

Avoid alcohol while taking this medicine as it increases the risk of stomach bleeding and liver damage. Inform your doctor if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding. Use with caution if you have kidney or liver problems; dose adjustment may be needed. This medicine may cause dizziness or drowsiness; avoid driving or operating machinery if affected. Inform your doctor about all other medicines you are taking, especially blood thinners, other NSAIDs, or medicines for heart conditions. People with a history of stomach ulcers, heart disease, high blood pressure, or asthma should use this medicine only under medical supervision. Do not use for prolonged periods without consulting your doctor.
