Nabuflam 500mg Tablet (Nabumetone) is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins, substances in the body that cause pain, inflammation, and fever. It's thought to be less readily converted to its active metabolite compared to other NSAIDs, potentially contributing to a reduced risk of gastrointestinal side effects (though this benefit isn't fully established across all studies).
Store at room temperature, away from moisture and direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children.
Dosage should be determined by a physician and may vary based on individual needs and response to treatment.
Typically taken once or twice daily with food or milk to reduce stomach upset.
