Frequently asked questions

Mefanorm Suspension is a pain-relief medicine that contains mefenamic acid, which belongs to a group of medicines called non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). It is used to relieve mild to moderate pain and inflammation in children, including toothaches, muscle pain, joint pain, and other short-term painful conditions. The medicine works by reducing certain chemicals in the body that cause pain and swelling. Mefanorm Suspension helps relieve symptoms but does not treat the underlying cause of pain. It should be used only as prescribed by a doctor.
Some children may experience side effects such as stomach pain, acidity, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or dizziness while taking Mefanorm Suspension. These effects occur because medicines in this group can irritate the stomach lining. In some cases, the child may develop a rash or swelling as a sign of an allergic reaction. Rarely, the medicine may cause stomach bleeding. Seek medical attention immediately if you notice black stools, vomiting blood, severe stomach pain, or swelling of the face or throat.
Yes, Mefanorm Suspension is usually recommended to be taken with food or after meals. Taking it with food can help reduce stomach irritation, acidity, nausea, or discomfort that may occur when the medicine is taken on an empty stomach. Avoid giving multiple pain medicines together unless the doctor advises it, and consult your child's doctor if your child has a history of stomach ulcers or severe acidity.
The correct dose of Mefanorm Suspension for a child should always be determined by a doctor. The dose depends on the child’s body weight, age, and medical condition. Always follow the dosing schedule prescribed by your child’s doctor to ensure the medicine is safe and effective.
No, you should not increase or decrease the dose of Mefanorm Suspension without consulting the doctor. Increasing the dose may raise the risk of side effects or toxicity, while lowering the dose may reduce the medicine’s effectiveness and allow symptoms to return. If you think the dose needs adjustment, discuss it with your child’s doctor.
No, the same dose should not be given to all children. The correct dose depends on the child’s age, body weight, and medical condition. As children grow, the appropriate dose may also change. Always follow your doctor’s instructions and do not give this medicine to another child without medical advice.
After starting Mefanorm Suspension, the medicine may begin to reduce pain or fever within a short time. However, your child may need to take it for several days depending on the condition. Continue giving the medicine exactly as prescribed by the doctor. If your child does not improve or continues to feel unwell after completing the recommended course, consult your child’s doctor.
Mefanorm Suspension is generally well tolerated in most children when used at the correct dose. However, seek medical attention immediately if your child develops persistent vomiting, swelling of the body, decreased urination, signs of an allergic reaction such as rash or breathing difficulty, or severe stomach pain that may indicate stomach irritation or ulcers.
Mefanorm Suspension should not be used for fever associated with dengue because it may interfere with blood clotting and increase the risk of bleeding. It is also not usually recommended for COVID-19 unless advised by a doctor. In these situations, doctors may recommend other fever-reducing medicines that are considered safer.
If your child is scheduled for a dental extraction or surgical procedure, the doctor may advise stopping Mefanorm Suspension a few days beforehand to reduce the risk of bleeding during the procedure. Always follow the instructions given by the doctor or dentist.
Mefanorm Suspension may interact with some other medicines. Before starting treatment, inform the doctor about all medicines, supplements, or herbal products your child is taking. Always check with your child’s doctor before giving any additional medicine at the same time.
