DOLAMIDE TABLET
Product Description
DOLAMIDE TABLET tablet is a prescription pain-relief and fever-control medicine that combines NIMESULIDE + PARACETAMOL. It belongs to the analgesic, antipyretic, and anti-inflammatory group of medicines. Doctors may prescribe it for short-term relief of acute pain, body ache, headache, toothache, period pain, joint or muscle pain, and fever when symptoms are linked with inflammation. The nimesulide component helps reduce inflammation and pain, while paracetamol helps lower temperature and ease discomfort. DOLAMIDE TABLET tablet is commonly available in adult tablet strengths such as 100 mg + 325 mg, though strengths can vary by manufacturer and prescription advice. Because this medicine can affect the liver and stomach, it should be used only for the shortest duration and at the DOLAMIDE TABLET dosage advised by your doctor.
Pharmacist Note
Take DOLAMIDE TABLET tablet exactly as prescribed, preferably after food if it causes stomach discomfort. Avoid taking any other fever or pain medicine at the same time unless your doctor has checked it, because this can increase the chance of side effects or accidental overdose. Stop use and seek medical advice quickly if you notice severe stomach pain, vomiting, rash, unusual tiredness, yellowing of the eyes, or dark urine.
