What does it do?

Dexibuprofen DC belongs to the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) class. It is primarily used to relieve musculoskeletal pain, inflammation, and fever symptoms. This agent improves symptoms by inhibiting the production of substances that cause pain and inflammation.

It reduces pain and inflammation by blocking the production of prostaglandins, substances that trigger inflammation and pain in the body. It also acts on the body’s thermoregulation center to provide a fever-reducing effect. Consequently, it alleviates various types of pain and fever, such as muscle pain, arthritis, and headaches.
