Sigmol 250mg/5ml Suspension contain Paracetamol/Acetaminophen 250mg/5ml

Paracetamol acts on the hypothalamus (the body’s temperature-regulating center in the brain). It helps lower fever by increasing heat loss through sweating and widening blood vessels

It blocks the action of certain chemicals called prostaglandins in the brain that cause pain and inflammation. This helps reduce headache, body ache, sore throat, and mild joint pain

Unlike some painkillers, Paracetamol does not irritate the stomach lining or cause acidity when taken in the prescribed dose

Q. Does Sigmol 250mg/5ml Suspension stay in the body after finishing the course?
Interestingly, azithromycin stays in body tissues for a few days even after completing the dose. This helps it continue fighting bacteria, which is why short courses are often effective
