Managing the Side Effects:

Dolamide Tablet comprises two active ingredients:

Nimesulide (100 mg): This is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) which primarily functions by inhibiting an enzyme called cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2). The process decreases the production of prostaglandins, substances in your body crucial in causing pain, inflammation and fever. Nimesulide also possesses antioxidant properties.
Paracetamol/Acetaminophen (325 mg): This para-aminophenol derivative has pain-relieving and fever-reducing properties. It's believed to work by inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis in the brain and blocking pain signals peripherally.

Owing to their different modes of action, the combination of nimesulide and paracetamol provides additive benefits in relieving pain and reducing fever.
