  • Provide relief from post-operative pain and other acute painful conditions.

How Does Combiflam Work

  • Ibuprofen: A non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that blocks cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, reducing the production of prostaglandins responsible for pain, inflammation, and swelling.
  • Paracetamol: Acts centrally on the brain’s pain-regulating center to relieve pain and reduce fever by lowering body temperature.

  • Take Combiflam exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider, usually 1 tablet every 6–8 hours as needed.

Drug Interactions

Combiflam may interact with:
