About mefenamic acid
What it treats
Mefenamic acid is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used for mild to moderate pain, especially period pain, headaches, toothache and muscle pain, and, in some countries, to bring down fever in children.
Why it is widely sold
It is a trusted choice for period pain, one of the biggest painkiller categories in pharmacies, and it comes in capsule and tablet form. Paediatric suspensions are sold in some markets.
How it is taken
It is taken three times a day with food, for no longer than a week at a time. NSAIDs can irritate the stomach and, with long use, affect the kidneys and raise the risk of heart problems, so they are taken with food at the lowest dose for the shortest time. They are not suitable for people with stomach ulcers or severe kidney, liver or heart disease, and are avoided in late pregnancy. It can occasionally cause diarrhoea or rash, and should be stopped if these occur. Patients should always follow the approved label and the prescriber's instructions in their country.
