Additionally, Mefzox 100mg Tablet DT is used to relieve period pain, symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS), and management of excessively heavy periods. Mefzox 100mg Tablet DT works by blocking the effect of a chemical messenger in your body, known as cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes that make another chemical prostaglandins. These prostaglandins are produced at injury sites and cause pain and swelling. By blocking the effect of COX enzymes, lesser prostaglandins are produced, which reduces mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site.
