Composition of Novolid

Novolid contains Nimesulide. It belongs to the Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug class of medicines.

Uses of Novolid

  • Pain
  • Inflammation
  • Arthritis
  • Fever
  • Period pain

Benefits of Novolid

In Pain
Novolid blocks the chemicals that cause pain at the site of an injury or inflammation, giving relief that is often stronger than paracetamol for pain with swelling.
In Inflammation
Novolid reduces the swelling, redness, heat and stiffness of an inflamed joint or injured tissue, so movement is easier.
In Arthritis
Novolid eases the pain and morning stiffness of arthritis, so joints move more freely and daily tasks become easier.
In Fever
Novolid lowers a raised temperature and relieves the aching that goes with it.
In Period pain
Novolid reduces the chemicals that make the womb cramp during a period, which is why it works well for period pain when taken as the pain begins.

How Novolid works

Nimesulide blocks the chemicals your body makes at a site of injury or inflammation, which reduces pain, swelling and fever.

How to take Novolid

Use this medicine as your doctor has directed. Follow the dose and the duration written on your prescription.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

Take it as soon as you remember. If your next dose is almost due, skip the one you missed — never take two doses together to catch up.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine can cause stomach bleeding, kidney failure, drowsiness and fits. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Side effects of Novolid

Most side effects of Novolid are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:

  • Indigestion
  • Stomach pain
  • Nausea
  • Heartburn
  • Dizziness
  • Swelling of the ankles and feet

Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.

Safety advice for Novolid

AlcoholUNSAFE
Do not drink alcohol while taking this medicine.
PregnancyUNSAFE
Not recommended in pregnancy. It may harm the developing baby, so tell your doctor at once if you are or might be pregnant.
Breast feedingCAUTION
Use with caution while breastfeeding; watch the baby for any unusual symptoms.
DrivingCAUTION

KidneyCONSULT YOUR DOCTOR

LiverUNSAFE
Not recommended if you have significant liver disease.

Warnings and precautions

Take it with or just after food, and for the shortest time that works. Stop and seek urgent care for black or tarry stools, vomiting blood, or severe stomach pain — this group can cause bleeding from the stomach. Long or high-dose use raises the risk of heart attack, stroke and kidney injury, particularly in older people and those already at risk. Avoid if you are dehydrated or have an illness with vomiting or loose motions — the kidneys are vulnerable then. Must be avoided in the last three months of pregnancy. Nimesulide must not be given to children under twelve, and courses are restricted to a few days because of the risk of liver injury. Stop and see a doctor at once if you notice yellowing of the eyes or skin, dark urine or persistent nausea.

Do not take Novolid if

Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack. Not for people with an active stomach ulcer, severe kidney or heart failure, or asthma triggered by aspirin or anti-inflammatory painkillers. Not in the third trimester of pregnancy.

Interactions with other medicines

Combining with a blood thinner or aspirin sharply raises the bleeding risk. Reduces the effect of blood pressure medicines and water tablets, and together with them can harm the kidneys. Never take two anti-inflammatory painkillers at the same time.

How to store Novolid

Store below 30°C in the original pack, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep out of the reach of children.

Quick tips for Novolid

  • Use the lowest dose for the shortest period.
  • If you need a painkiller regularly, see your doctor rather than continuing on your own.
  • Paracetamol is the safer choice for simple fever and headache.

People taking Novolid are often asked to check these from time to time. Your doctor decides which and how often.
