FENCETA TAB 15

About

Fenceta Tab is a widely used combination medication that typically integrates an NSAID (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug), such as diclofenac or aceclofenac, with paracetamol (acetaminophen). The NSAID component functions by inhibiting the synthesis of prostaglandins, which are potent biochemical mediators responsible for inducing pain, inflammation, and fever at the site of injury or disease. Concurrently, paracetamol primarily exerts its analgesic and antipyretic effects within the central nervous system by elevating the pain threshold and acting on the thermoregulatory center in the brain. This synergistic combination provides a more comprehensive and enhanced therapeutic effect, making it highly effective for managing a broad spectrum of painful and inflammatory conditions, including musculoskeletal pain, headaches, dental pain, and menstrual cramps, offering robust and multifaceted symptom relief.
