About NALFY 20MG INJECTION

NALFY 20MG INJECTION belongs to the group of opioid analgesics used to relieve severe pain. It may also be used as an adjunct to balanced anaesthesia for pre/post-operative analgesia, during labour and delivery. Pain is defined as an unpleasant sensation produced in the body in response to external changes, stress, or trauma.

NALFY 20MG INJECTION contains 'Nalbuphine' that works by reducing the production of inflammatory substances (prostaglandins) and thus, relieves the body of swelling and subsequent pain. NALFY 20MG INJECTION also blocks pain-producing nerve transmitters, leading to a reduced sensation of pain and offering massive pain relief.

NALFY 20MG INJECTION will be administered by a qualified health care professional. Do not self-inject. NALFY 20MG INJECTION may cause certain common side effects such as drowsiness, dry mouth, nausea, vomiting, and constipation. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if these side effects persist.

It is advisable to inform the doctor if you are allergic to any of the components of NALFY 20MG INJECTION. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to get pregnant, or breastfeeding as NALFY 20MG INJECTION should be used with caution in these states. NALFY 20MG INJECTION may cause drowsiness, so avoid driving or operating machinery.
