Description

Modact-IR 100mg Tablets are supplied in a pack of 20, offering a fast-acting option for managing pain, inflammation, and fever. This medicine contains Nimesulide, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that works by blocking the production of certain chemical messengers in the body responsible for triggering pain signals and inflammation. Beyond its anti-inflammatory action, Nimesulide is also understood to offer a degree of tissue protection during periods of inflammation. Modact-IR is commonly used for short-term relief of everyday pain conditions as well as for managing symptoms linked to joint and musculoskeletal disorders. Because of its specific safety profile, this medicine is intended for short-term use only and is typically reserved for situations where other treatment options haven’t provided adequate relief.

Ingredients

Each Modact-IR 100mg Tablet contains Nimesulide as its active ingredient, present at a strength of 100mg. The tablet also includes standard pharmaceutical excipients that support its shape, coating, and consistent breakdown once taken, though these inactive components do not contribute to its pain-relieving or anti-inflammatory action.

Dosage Form

Modact-IR is presented as an oral tablet, supplied in a pack of 20 tablets at a strength of 100mg each, designed for straightforward short-term dosing under a doctor’s guidance.

Uses

Modact-IR 100mg Tablets are commonly used to relieve pain and inflammation associated with conditions such as osteoarthritis, menstrual cramps, sports injuries, backache, and post-operative pain. It is also used for general pain relief in cases like headaches, dental pain, and fever. This medicine is intended strictly for short-term use as needed, and it is not recommended for children under 12 years of age. Any use beyond a short course should only continue if specifically advised by a doctor.

How to Use

Modact-IR should be taken exactly as directed by the prescribing doctor, typically as one tablet daily, which may be increased to one tablet every 12 hours if needed for adequate symptom control. The tablet should be taken with food to help reduce the chance of stomach irritation, and swallowed with a glass of water. This medicine should be used for the shortest duration necessary, and the dose should not be increased or decreased without a doctor’s guidance. Treatment beyond the recommended short-term period should only continue under close medical supervision.

Side Effects

Modact-IR may cause side effects, particularly with higher doses or use beyond the recommended short duration. Commonly reported effects include stomach discomfort, nausea, heartburn, and dizziness. Some individuals may notice skin rash or mild allergic reactions. Less commonly, more serious effects such as liver dysfunction, gastrointestinal ulcers, or bleeding may occur, which is why this medicine requires caution in patients with existing liver conditions and should not be used for longer than necessary. Any signs of yellowing skin or eyes, dark urine, persistent stomach pain, or unusual bruising should be reported to a doctor immediately, and the medicine should be stopped right away if these occur.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

Modact-IR should not be used during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Like other NSAIDs, it can pose risks to a developing baby, and its use in these circumstances is generally avoided unless a doctor determines there is no suitable alternative and the situation has been carefully evaluated.

Storage Instructions

Keep the tablets in their original packaging until they are needed to help protect them from environmental exposure. Store the medicine securely out of reach of children. Do not use tablets beyond the expiry date printed on the packaging, and dispose of unused or expired medicine responsibly rather than through regular household waste.
