Medical Description

Flexon tablet is used to treat painful periods, dental pain, pain due to injury, sprain, fever, strain, and postoperative pain. It contains a combination of ibuprofen and paracetamol as its active ingredients. It works by preventing the release of certain chemical messengers that cause fever, pain, and inflammation.

A few other medicines that contain similar composition are Ibuflamar P 400mg tablet, Fenceta tablet, Ibugesic Plus tablet and Combiflam tablet.

Flexon should be taken as advised by the doctor and in the correct doses for the exact duration as prescribed. To avoid stomach problems, you can take this tablet with or after food. Do not skip a dose or consume more than that recommended by the doctor.

Flexon tablets should be used for short-term management of pain and fever. If there is no improvement in your condition after 3-4 days, consult your doctor. You should not take more than 3 tablets of Flexon in any 24 hours. Before starting with Tab Flexon, inform your doctor about all the existing medicines and medical conditions.
