Brufen Duo 150/500mg Ingredients and Usage
Brufen Duo is an advanced combination therapy that brings together two of the most effective pain relievers: Ibuprofen and Paracetamol. This formulation is designed for the short-term management of pain that requires a stronger approach than either drug can provide alone. In the Pakistani market, Brufen Duo is commonly used for acute back pain, dental procedures, severe headaches, and period pain.
By utilizing two different pharmacological pathways for pain relief, it provides a more comprehensive and superior therapeutic effect. This makes it a preferred choice for individuals who find that single-ingredient pain relievers are insufficient. PakMeds offers Brufen Duo for those needing powerful, fast-acting relief from stubborn pain and inflammation.
How Does Brufen Duo 150/500mg Work?
Brufen Duo works through a synergistic “dual-action” mechanism. Paracetamol acts primarily on the central nervous system to increase the body’s overall pain threshold and lower fever. Ibuprofen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), acts peripherally at the site of inflammation to block the production of prostaglandins.
By attacking pain from both the source (peripheral) and the brain (central), Brufen Duo provides significantly better relief than taking the ingredients separately. This combination is scientifically proven to be more effective for acute pain states while maintaining a favorable safety profile when used as directed. The balance of ingredients ensures rapid onset and sustained relief.
Brufen Duo 150/500mg Side Effects
Possible side effects include nausea, dizziness, and abdominal discomfort. While generally safe, the combination carries the risks associated with both active ingredients, including potential liver strain from Paracetamol if taken in excess. Gastric irritation from Ibuprofen is also possible, particularly if taken on an empty stomach.
Rarely, allergic reactions such as skin rashes or swelling may occur. PakMeds recommends not exceeding the recommended dose and avoiding other paracetamol-containing products during treatment to prevent toxicity. If you experience persistent stomach pain or signs of jaundice, seek medical attention immediately.
List of Warnings:
- Do not take with any other products containing Paracetamol.
- Avoid use if you have a history of stomach ulcers or gastrointestinal bleeding.
- Contraindicated in patients with severe liver or kidney disease.
- Do not consume alcohol while taking this medication as it increases the risk of liver damage.
- Avoid use during pregnancy unless specifically directed by your doctor.
