Megadol Syrup is a combination medicine of Ibuprofen (anti-inflammatory effect) and Paracetamol (analgesic and antipyretic). Ibuprofen works by blocking the effect of a chemical known as prostaglandin, responsible for inducing pain and inflammation in our body. Paracetamol lowers the elevated body temperature and mild pain by inhibiting the synthesis of a chemical messenger (prostaglandin) and promoting heat loss (through sweating) that helps reset the hypothalamic thermostat.
