Dismenol Ibuprofen 200 mg film-coated tablets, 20 ST

Dismenol ibuprofen 200 mg film-coated tablets have an analgesic effect on menstrual pain and an anti-inflammatory and antipyretic effect on headaches, back pain, toothache, muscle pain and joint pain.

Dismenol® helps before the pain arises. How does it work? The effect of ibuprofen is based on the inhibition of the body's own prostaglandin production. As already described, prostaglandins are the trigger for inflammation in the tissue and the cramp-like contraction of the uterus. In addition, prostaglandins also irritate nerve endings, which are perceived and processed as pain via transmission in the brain.

Dismenol Ibuprofen 200 mg film-coated tablets are used for mild to moderate pain, e.g:

• Headache, back pain, toothache, muscle pain, joint pain,
• Pain associated with colds and flu-like infections,
• menstrual pain.

Note: Painkillers should not be used for long periods or in high doses without medical advice.
