Paracetamol
PARACETAMOL
Overview
Paracetamol is a commonly used medication that helps relieve mild to moderate pain and reduce fever. It’s often used for:
Headaches
Toothaches
Muscle and back pain
Menstrual cramps
Cold and flu symptoms
It’s available over-the-counter and is considered safe when used as directed.
Classification
Analgesic and antipyretic agent
Uses
Paracetamol is used for pain relief and fever. It is used to relieve pain in conditions like headache, muscle pain, or dental pain.
How it works
When you produce a fever, your body’s internal thermostat — found in the hypothalamus portion of the brain — is raised to a higher temperature. This new set point is usually induced by pyrogens (substances made during infections) that tell the body to produce more heat as a form of immune defense.
Due to its effects in the brain, paracetamol reduces the production of reactive prostaglandins. Prostaglandins are disease-fighting chemicals released during infection that in turn, raise the body’s temperature set point. By decreasing prostaglandin levels, paracetamol enables the hypothalamus’ temperature control centre to bring the body’s temperature back down to normal, allowing the body to cool down and the fever to subside
Dosage
As directed by the physician
Precautions

Trypsin Chymotrypsin
TRYPSIN CHYMOTRYPSIN
OVERVIEW
Trypsin – Chymotrypsin is a combination of natural enzymes that helps reduce swelling and pain, especially after surgery or injury. It works by calming inflammation and helping the body heal faster, especially when there’s tissue damage or blood clots causing discomfort.
Besides reducing pain and swelling, these enzymes also support digestion. They help your body break down and absorb proteins and nutrients more effectively, which can be especially helpful during recovery.
CLASSIFICATION
Proteolytic enzymes
USES
Trypsin Chymotrypsin helps in the absorption of protein by breaking it into smaller portions, which ultimately relieves pain and provides an increased flow of blood to the swollen areas. It improves digestion and absorption of protein and vital nutrients in the body. Trypsin chymotrypsin uses are in treating the following medical conditions:
Postsurgical pain
Swollen muscle injuries
Necrotic tissues
Chronic respiratory disorders
Trauma followed by intracapsular cataract removal
Inflammatory diseases
HOW IT WORKS
Trypsin Chymotrypsin is an enzyme. It works by breaking down proteins into smaller fragments, thereby making them available for absorption into the blood. Once absorbed, it increases blood supply in the affected area and reduces swelling.
DOSAGE
As directed by the physician
PRECAUTIONS
Do not take Trypsin Chymotrypsin if you are allergic to Trypsin Chymotrypsin or its contents. Do not stop taking Trypsin Chymotrypsin without consulting your doctor. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and medicines to rule out any side effects. It is not known whether Trypsin Chymotrypsin alters the ability to drive. Do not drive if you experience symptoms affecting your ability to concentrate and react. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or plan to have a baby, ask your doctor for advice before taking this medicine. Limited information on using Trypsin Chymotrypsin in pregnant women and nursing mothers is available.
SIDE EFFECTS
Most people handle this medicine well, but like any treatment, it can sometimes cause side effects. Some common ones include mild stomach upset or feeling a bit nauseous.
A few people might notice skin rashes or signs of an allergic reaction. Taking too much of the medicine could make you more likely to bruise or cause your blood to thin too much.
In rare cases, it might upset your stomach enough to cause diarrhea.
If you ever notice serious symptoms—like swelling in your face, lips, or throat—get medical help right away, as this could be a sign of a serious allergic reaction.
