About Anafortan Syrup 100 ml

Anafortan Syrup 100 ml is a combination drug primarily used to reduce abdominal pain caused by dysmenorrhoea (irregular or painful periods/menses). Dysmenorrhea (menstrual cramps) is an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with irregular periods. It occurs just before or during menses. Menstrual cramps cause throbbing pain in the lower belly (abdomen) during menses. These cramps can range from mild to severe.

Anafortan Syrup 100 ml is composed of two medicines: Camylofin (an antispasmodic) and Paracetamol (an analgesic and antipyretic). Paracetamol helps decrease inflammation caused by dysmenorrhea. It works by blocking a chemical messenger responsible for transmitting pain sensations. Camylofin helps block the activity of certain natural substances in the body that cause pain. Together, they effectively reduce pain and spasms.

Anafortan Syrup 100 ml should be taken as prescribed by the doctor. Some people may experience common side effects, including dizziness, headache, vomiting, nausea, fatigue, dry mouth, skin rash, blurred vision, and irregular heartbeats.

Instead, you can do stretching, low-impact aerobic exercise (like walking on the treadmill, bike riding, and swimming), and simple forms of yoga. You can also strengthen your muscles by lifting light weights and engaging in regular muscle stretching.
  • Your sitting posture is essential, especially when you have a pain and inflammation condition. Try to sit as little as possible and only for a short time (10-15 min). Use a back support, such as a rolled-up towel, to minimise pain at the back of your neck. Keep your knees and hips at a right angle.
