Product Information

Description
This medicine works by stopping the production of certain chemicals in the body that causes swelling, pain, and fever. Mefenamic Acid performs its actions by binding to the prostaglandin synthetase receptors; COX-1 and COX-2, and inhibiting the action of prostaglandin synthetase. As these receptors play a role as a major mediator of inflammation and play a role for prostanoid signaling in activity-dependent plasticity as well, so the symptoms of pain are temporarily reduced and inflammation is also treated. -
