About this product

Overview

Dolonap 500mg Tablet is a formulation of the nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) Naproxen, used primarily for its analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. Each tablet contains 500mg of Naproxen, which helps to reduce pain, inflammation, and fever. Naproxen works by inhibiting the enzymes responsible for prostaglandin synthesis, thereby reducing inflammation and pain.

Uses

Dolonap 500mg Tablet is indicated for the treatment of various conditions characterized by pain and inflammation:

  • Rheumatoid Arthritis and Osteoarthritis: It helps manage joint pain, stiffness, and swelling.
  • Ankylosing Spondylitis: Reduces pain and stiffness associated with this spinal condition.
  • Menstrual Cramps: Effective in alleviating pain from menstrual discomfort.
  • Acute Gout: Used to relieve the pain and inflammation of gout attacks.
  • Pain Management: Helps manage general and acute pain such as headaches, muscle pain, and post-operative pain.

Side Effects

While Dolonap 500mg Tablet is effective for managing pain and inflammation, it may cause some side effects, including:

  • Gastrointestinal issues such as stomach upset, heartburn, and nausea; more severe effects can include ulcers and gastrointestinal bleeding.
  • Headache, dizziness, or drowsiness.
  • Fluid retention and elevated blood pressure.
  • Skin reactions such as rashes or itching.
  • Rarely, severe adverse effects like liver or kidney damage, heart problems, or severe allergic reactions.

Precautions

Before using Dolonap 500mg Tablet, certain precautions should be noted:

  • Medical History: Inform your doctor if you have a history of heart disease, hypertension, liver or kidney disease, asthma, or if you have had stomach ulcers or gastrointestinal bleeding.
  • Drug Interactions: Naproxen can interact with other medications, including anticoagulants, other NSAIDs, lithium, methotrexate, and certain antihypertensives.
  • Alcohol Consumption: Avoid alcohol as it can increase the risk of stomach bleeding.
  • Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Use during pregnancy, especially in the later stages, is discouraged due to the risk of complications; it should be used under medical advice. Caution is advised when used during breastfeeding.

When Not to Use

Dolonap 500mg Tablet should not be used in individuals who:

  • Are allergic to Naproxen or any other NSAIDs.
