Overview Meftal-P Dispersible Tablet

Paracetamol and ibuprofen dispersible tablets are a type of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). They effectively reduce fever, pain, and inflammation (swelling and redness) in infants and children. These medications work by inhibiting the activity of a substance in the body responsible for these symptoms. Administer the prescribed dosage accurately, at the correct time, and as directed. Oral administration is recommended, either before or after meals, ideally at a consistent time each day. Post-meal administration is preferred to minimize stomach upset. If your child vomits within 30 minutes, repeat the same dose. Never exceed the recommended dosage; doing so can lead to adverse effects. Common side effects may include nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, heartburn, and diarrhea—these are generally transient and resolve with continued use. However, persistent or concerning side effects warrant immediate consultation with your pediatrician. Before administering this medication, inform your child's doctor of any known allergies, pre-existing conditions such as heart problems, congenital defects, liver or kidney impairment, respiratory illnesses, or bleeding disorders. This information is crucial for appropriate dosage adjustment and treatment planning.
