Medicinal Benefits

Rxmef Suspension 60 ml belongs to a group of medicines called NSAID (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug) used to provide relief from mild to moderate pain and inflammation associated with muscular, rheumatic, arthritic disorders, headache, trauma, dental pain, and pain after surgery or childbirth. Additionally, Rxmef Suspension 60 ml is used to relieve period pain, symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS), and management of excessively heavy periods. Rxmef Suspension 60 ml works by blocking the effect of a chemical messenger in your body, known as cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes that make another chemical prostaglandins.
