This is a prescription medication that combines an opioid pain reliever with a non-opioid pain reliever. It's commonly used to treat moderate to severe pain. The opioid works by binding to specific receptors in the brain to reduce the perception of pain, while the non-opioid enhances its effects and helps lower fever.
This medication is typically prescribed for short-term pain relief, such as after surgery or injury. Because it contains an opioid, there is a risk of dependence and misuse, so it's important to follow the prescribed dosage carefully.
