Alminoprofen: function, dosage, side effects, how to use

What drug Alminoprofen?

What is Alminoprofen for?

Alminoprofen is a medication to relieve pain from various conditions such as headaches, toothaches, menstrual cramps, muscle aches, or arthritis. This medicine is also useful for reducing fever and relieving minor aches and pains due to colds or flu. Alminoprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug. These drugs work by inhibiting the production of certain natural substances that cause inflammation. This effect helps reduce swelling, pain, or fever.

How do you use Alminoprofen?

If you are on an over the counter medicine, read all directions on the product packaging before using this medication. If your doctor has prescribed this medicine, read the Medication Guidelines provided by the pharmacist before starting to take Alminoprofen and each time you get a refill. If you have questions, ask your doctor or pharmacist.

Dosage is based on medical condition and response to treatment. To reduce the risk of stomach bleeding and other side effects, take the medication at the lowest effective dose in the shortest time possible. Do not increase your dose or take this medication more often as directed by your doctor or on the packaging label. For ongoing conditions such as arthritis, continue to take this medication as directed by your doctor.

When Alminoprofen is used by children, the dosage is based on the child's weight. Read the packaging instructions to find the correct dosage for your child's weight. Consult your pharmacist or doctor if you have questions or need help choosing an over the counter product.

If you are taking this medication "as needed" (not on a regular schedule), remember that pain medications work best when they are used when the first signs of pain appear. If you wait until the pain gets worse, the medication may not work as well.

Tell the doctor if the condition does not improve or gets worse or if new symptoms develop. If you think you may have a serious medical problem, get medical help right away.
