What does it do?

Dexamethasone DC belongs to the class of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). It is primarily used to alleviate musculoskeletal pain and inflammation, and fever symptoms. This ingredient works by suppressing the inflammatory response in the body to reduce pain and fever.

Dexamethasone DC inhibits the production of prostaglandins, substances that cause inflammation and pain in the body. This helps to decrease swelling and pain at the site of inflammation and acts on the temperature regulation center to lower fever.
