Midrid 15 Capsules for Migraine

Midrid 325mg/65mg Capsules are used for the treatment of migraine attacks and throbbing headaches. Each capsule contains a combination of paracetamol 325mg and isometheptene mucate 65mg, which work together to help relieve migraine-related pain.

Paracetamol helps reduce pain, while isometheptene mucate helps restore widened blood vessels associated with migraine attacks to a more normal state. This dual-action formulation is designed to help manage migraine symptoms and associated headache discomfort.

Midrid capsules are intended for adult use and should be taken according to the instructions provided by your healthcare professional or the patient information leaflet.

Always take Midrid exactly as directed by your doctor, pharmacist, or the patient information leaflet.
