Same salt, different brand — what does that mean?

A substitute contains the same active ingredient (salt), in the same strength, as Pyrigesic Drops. The brand name, manufacturer, inactive ingredients and price can differ, and so can release form, so a substitute is not automatically interchangeable.

All medicines sold in India, branded or generic, must meet the quality standards set by the national drug regulator (CDSCO). A lower price does not mean lower quality.

Please confirm with your doctor or pharmacist before switching brands — they will check that the strength and form match your prescription.

Benefits of Pyrigesic Drops

In Fever
Pyrigesic brings a raised temperature down by acting on the part of the brain that controls body heat, easing the chills, aches and discomfort that come with a fever.
In Headache
Pyrigesic relieves a headache by blocking the chemical messengers in the brain that signal pain, usually within the hour.
In Body ache
Pyrigesic eases the generalised aching of viral illness, overexertion or fever so you can rest and move more comfortably.
In Mild to moderate pain
Pyrigesic relieves everyday pain such as toothache, period pain and sprains. It is gentle on the stomach, which is why it is usually the first painkiller a doctor suggests.

How Pyrigesic Drops works

Acts centrally to reduce fever by inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis in the brain’s temperature-regulating center and provides analgesia by reducing pain signal mediators.
