Hello, My wife suffers from acute Dysmenorrhea. She takes Meftal Spas250 twice at a time & thrice a day. She suffers unbearable pain. Menstruation timing is regular & occurs in right amount. However she has one active kidney(which is larger in size) & another inactive. We are worried that Meftal is affecting her kidney big time. Please can you suggest
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Prolonged use of Meftal definitely harm her kidney. It’s a drug belong to the group of NSAID and long term use is not recommended. You can consult your gynecologist and star on hormonal pills which help in dysmenorrhea. You can also try analgesics like Tramdol which is considered as safe in kidney patients.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
