Description
Overview of the medicine
Ibsan 150 mg Tablet contains a hypothetical active ingredient primarily used for pain relief and reducing inflammation. It belongs to the class of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or a similar therapeutic group, providing symptomatic relief for various conditions.
Uses & Indications
Dosage
Adults
The usual adult dose is 150 mg once or twice daily, preferably with food. Max dose 300 mg/day.

How to Take
Take the tablet whole with a glass of water, preferably with or after food to minimize gastrointestinal discomfort.
Mechanism of Action
The active ingredient in Ibsan 150 mg works by inhibiting the activity of cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, particularly COX-1 and COX-2. This inhibition leads to a reduction in the synthesis of prostaglandins, which are mediators of pain, inflammation, and fever.

Mainly excreted in the urine as metabolites, with a small portion excreted in feces.
Half life
Approximately 2-4 hours.

Rapidly and almost completely absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, reaching peak plasma concentrations within 1-2 hours.
Metabolism
Primarily metabolized in the liver by oxidation and conjugation.
