Tolfenamic Acid

Tolfenamic Acid is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used for the relief of pain and inflammation associated with various conditions. It is particularly effective in managing pain related to menstruation, dysmenorrhea, and primary dysmenorrhea.
Tolfenamic Acid works by inhibiting the enzyme cyclooxygenase (COX), which is responsible for the production of prostaglandins, substances that play a significant role in inflammation, pain, and fever. By blocking COX, Tolfenamic Acid reduces the production of prostaglandins, thereby alleviating pain and inflammation.
This medication is available in various forms, such as tablets, capsules, and gel. It is important to follow the dosage instructions provided by your healthcare professional to ensure the safe and effective use of Tolfenamic Acid. As with any medication, there may be potential side effects, so consult with a healthcare professional before starting treatment.
