About Biocetamol 150 mg Injection 2 ml

Biocetamol 150 mg Injection 2 ml belongs to the group of medicines called analgesic and antipyretic agents, primarily used to relieve mild to moderate pain and to treat fever. Pain is a symptom triggered by the nervous system, which causes uncomfortable sensations in the body. Fever occurs when the body's temperature goes above the average body temperature (98.6°F or 37°C).

Biocetamol 150 mg Injection 2 ml contains 'Paracetamol,' which prevents the formation of chemical messengers called prostaglandins, which cause pain and swelling at the injury sites.
