Basic Information

Mechanism Of Action

Junocip 100 mg/325 mg Tablet is a combination of two medicines: Nimesulide and Paracetamol. It works by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers that cause fever, pain and inflammation (redness and swelling).

Pharmacokinets

Nimesulide is absorbed rapidly following oral administration. Nimesulide undergoes extensive biotransformation, mainly to 4-hydroxynimesulide (which also appears to be biologically active). Food, gender, and advanced age have negligible effects on nimesulide pharmacokinetics. Paracetamol is readily absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract with peak plasma concentrations occurring about 10 to 60 minutes after oral administration. Paracetamol is distributed into most body tissues.
