Overview Geftal DR 80mg/250mg Tablet

Combiflam DR 80mg/250mg tablets provide relief from abdominal pain. This dual-action formulation eases abdominal pain, bloating, discomfort, and cramping by relaxing gastrointestinal muscles and inhibiting pain-inducing chemical signals. Always take Combiflam DR 80mg/250mg tablets with food, following your doctor's prescribed dosage and duration. Treatment length depends on your individual response and condition; premature discontinuation may lead to symptom recurrence or worsening. Inform your physician about all other medications you're using, as interactions are possible. Common, typically transient side effects include diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, stomach ache, dry mouth, appetite loss, thirst, and heartburn. Report any concerning side effects immediately. Dizziness and drowsiness may occur; avoid driving or activities demanding concentration until the effects are known. Alcohol consumption should be avoided due to increased dizziness risk. Prior to use, disclose pregnancy, pregnancy plans, breastfeeding, or kidney/liver conditions to your doctor for appropriate dosage adjustment.
