About Flupishine-P Tablet

Flupishine-P Tablet is a combination medication that belongs to the analgesic medication class. It is widely used in the treatment of acute and chronic pain, fever, headache, joint pains, dysmenorrhea (period pain), postoperative pain, toothache after dental extraction, and myalgia (muscle pain). Pain is a widely used term used to describe an unpleasant feeling or discomfort. It ranges from mild to severe. The severity of the pain depends on the underlying condition. Inflammation is the immune system's natural response to injury or infection.

Flupishine-P Tablet contains flupirtine and paracetamol. Flupirtine is an analgesic (non-opioid analgesic) which works by blocking the transmission of pain signals to the brain to lower pain perception. Paracetamol is an analgesic (pain reliever) and an antipyretic (fever reducer), which works by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers that cause fever and pain. Thus Flupishine-P Tablet alleviates pain and other associate conditions.

Use Flupishine-P Tablet as directed by the physician only. The dose and duration of the medication depend on your condition and its severity.

Most of these side effects of Flupishine-P Tablet are temporary, do not require medical attention, and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

Before taking Flupishine-P Tablet, inform your doctor if you are allergic to flupirtine, paracetamol, or other ingredients. Besides, inform your doctor if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have any pre-existing conditions such as liver diseases such as hepatic encephalopathy (loss of brain function due to liver damage), chronic alcoholism, or cholestasis (reduced bile flow), renal impairment, myasthenia gravis (chronic neuromuscular disease), or heart diseases.
