What Are Side Effects Of Combiflam?

I take Combiflam tablets every other day due to headache. I have very frequent needle-like pain on the left-side of my stomach these days. Is it somewhere related to excessive combiflam consumption? My height is 5 feet 3 inches, weight is 64 Kgs and age is 31.

Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM

Combiflam is not advised for long term use

First try to know the cause for headache and treat the cause rather than treating the symptom

Regarding side effects it includes dizziness, abdominal cramp, stomach ache, diarrhea, nausea or vomiting. These side effects are not a cause for worry and passes away with time, if any of the common side effects becomes persistent, stop using the over the counter drug and consult your doctor immediately.

Excessive usage damages the stomach lining which is the cause for stomach pain
