Nimesulide Side Effects

I am having severe back pain travelling to abdomen. Tried several pain killers like Diclofenac and HIfenac-D, Nicoxia MR but when i take Nimessulide (Nice) it helps in drastically reducing the pain. Wonder why Nimesulide helps and other pain killers are not that effective ? Can i take Nimesulide for long term ? ## Have you had any testing done to see what's causing the pain? The Nimesulide is a different type of anti-inflammatory pain reliever, since it's a Cox-2 inhibitor. Learn more Nimesulide details here.

Hello... I have taken one nimesulide tablet in combination with diclofenac at my 20 th day of pregnancy... Will it cause any side effects or birth defects to the baby... Please advise.. ## Hello, Vinothini! How are you? It isn't likely that there will be damage from just taking them once, but it would be best to inform your doctor, so they can watch for any potential problems. The U.S. FDA also warns of the risk of bleeding, which could be an issue, when you go into labor. Is there anything else I can help with?

If a person takes 10 to 20 tablets a day then what are the side effects to the body? I want to know. ## Taking that many could cause a toxic overdose that results in overdose. As listed by the U.S. FDA, overdose symptoms may include nausea, vomiting, dizziness and shallow breathing. Do you know someone who is taking this many?

i am a student of medical i want to know nimesulide is safe in pregnancy? ## No; it's contraindicated in pregnancy and should be taken with caution in lactating females. If you have any pain then go for paracetamol. Nimesulide is one of the best pain management drug but due to certain side effects all advantages are outweighed by side effects like hepatotoxicity and bad effect on kidney. If you have GI problems, hpersentivity, ulcers, bleeding problem, kidney and liver problem please avoid this medicine. And it's also not safe for children below 12.

I consumed 60 ml of rum in the night before I had a fever. I took a tab of nimesulide 100 mg after not more than 5 hours for fever and pain. Am I in trouble. reply asap ## It is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory, so it should not be taken, when imbibing, due to the fact that it could cause stomach bleeding, ulceration, liver damage, or liver failure, according to NIH reports. These conditions aren't likely after just one dose, but there are always rare exceptions. How are you doing? Did you experience any adverse effects? Please make sure to inform your medical provider, so they can watch for any possible danger signs.

I just had a root canal for one of my teeth and the treatment is still going on for another tooth. My dentist directed me to take Sumo (nimesulide 500 mg + paracetamol 100 mg) and Droxil 500 mg two times a day for as many days long as the treatment is going on. As a result of this, I often feel weak and drowsy. Do these medications have any side effects? Are there any other safer alternatives to these medications?
