Katridol-100 mg tablet contains Tapentadol, which is a strong pain reliever. It is used to treat moderate to severe pain when simpler painkillers like paracetamol or ibuprofen are not enough to control the discomfort. It is used to reduce a variety of pain conditions, such as headaches, toothaches, and muscle soreness. Doctors may also prescribe it after surgery to help manage postoperative pain. It is also used for pain from injuries, such as fractures, or severe joint problems like arthritis. Tapentadol works by acting on the brain and nerves to reduce the feeling of pain and also changes how the body responds to pain signals. It should be taken exactly as advised by your doctor because it may cause side effects such as dizziness, sleepiness, or nausea. It may also lead to dependence if not used correctly, so medical supervision is important during treatment.

Katridol 100 contains Tapentadol 100 mg, which is a controlled prescription medicine. Under Indian health and government regulations, Tapentadol is not permitted for online or over‑the‑counter sale because of the risks of misuse, dependence, and serious side effects. It is only available through offline hospital pharmacies or medical counters, and strictly with a valid physical prescription from a doctor. This ensures that it is used safely and only when medically necessary.
