Grip Stop Tablet #4

Name - Grip Stop Tablet #4 Composition Grip Stop Tablet: Each tablet contains Paracetamol USP 500 mg and Caffeine USP 65 mg. Pharmacology Grip Stop is a combination of Paracetamol (Acetaminophen) and Caffeine. It has analgesic and antipyretic properties. The presence of caffeine enhances the analgesic effect of paracetamol. Paracetamol is one of the safest and most widely used analgesics and antipyretics. It produces analgesic action by increasing the pain threshold and antipyretic action by acting on the heat-regulating center of the hypothalamus. Caffeine is an alkaloid, a xanthine derivative similar to theophylline. By forming an intermolecular bond with paracetamol, caffeine increases the solubility and trans-membrane penetration of paracetamol. Furthermore, caffeine increases the pain threshold and pain tolerance. Caffeine also has an intrinsic power to increase vascular tone in the cerebral vasculature, which provides another benefit in the treatment of migraine and headache. Indications Fever, headache, migraine, muscle pain, back pain, toothache, and menstrual pain. Dosage and Administration Adults: 1-2 tablets every 4-6 hours. Maximum dose: 8 tablets per day.
