What Is NIMS Tablet?

Hi, can you tell me please what is in the NIMS tablet, purchased from Nepal. the Nepalese pharamcy people are telling me it is strong, but not not as strong as codine phos. I am trying to work out whether it is an antiinflammotory or whether it is some just some sort of pain relief, ie paracetomol and ???? They gave it to me when I had Altitude sickensss for CARE. It worked the 1at time I took it, but hasn t worked since. I am still sufferring from abdo pain, some diahorrea, some dizziness and other altitude problems although I am now at normal alttiude. Appreciate your help. Thanks Sandy

Hi,

NIMS tablet contains nimesulide which is a non-steroidal anti inflammatory drug (NSAIDS) with pain medication and fever reducing properties is effective in relieving pain caused by headache, nerve pain, toothache, sore throat, period pains, arthritis, muscle aches, fever, post operative painful condition etc. This medication is widely used and very rarely cause side effects if taken at the right dosage for the shortest possible time.

t works by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers in the brain that cause pain and fever. It Side effects are nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain, GIT upset, dizziness, headache, somnolence, peripheral edema, liver damage, allergic reactions etc. You can check your liver function tests for its liver toxicity.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
