Rivo 200 Tablets

Rivo 200 Tablets

Description:

Rivo 200 Tablets are an oral pain relief medicine containing acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin), a well-known non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). They are used to relieve mild to moderate pain, reduce fever, and help manage inflammatory conditions. Rivo is commonly used in Egypt as an over-the-counter analgesic and antipyretic for headaches, toothache, period pain, muscle and joint pain, and symptoms of cold and flu. It works by inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis, thereby reducing pain, inflammation, and fever.

Indications:

• Relief of mild to moderate pain such as headache and migraine.
• Relief of nerve pain (neuralgia) and toothache.
• Relief of sore throat discomfort associated with colds and flu.
• Relief of menstrual (period) pain.
• Reduction of fever associated with infections, colds, and flu.
• Relief of pain and inflammation in sprains and strains, rheumatic pain, sciatica, backache, fibrositis, muscular aches and pains, joint swelling and stiffness.
• May be used, under medical supervision, in emergency situations to improve survival in suspected heart attack (acute myocardial infarction) as part of standard care.

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) – 200 mg per tablet.
• Excipients: Exact inactive ingredients (fillers, binders, colorants, preservatives) are not specified in the available information (For full ingredient information, please check the product leaflet or the manufacturer’s official website.).

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Adults and adolescents 16 years and over: Typically 1–2 tablets (200–400 mg) taken with a full glass of water, every 4–6 hours as needed, up to a maximum daily dose as advised by your doctor or stated on the package insert. Do not exceed the recommended maximum daily dose.
• Swallow tablets whole with water; they may be taken with or after food to help reduce stomach irritation.
• Use for the shortest duration possible to control symptoms. If pain or fever persists for more than 3–5 days, or worsens, consult a doctor.
• Children under 16 years: Do not use unless specifically prescribed by a doctor, due to the risk of Reye’s syndrome.
• For suspected heart attack (only under medical guidance): A loading dose of aspirin is usually recommended by emergency medical personnel or a physician. Follow emergency doctor’s instructions exactly.
• Do not take with other products containing aspirin or other NSAIDs unless directed by a healthcare professional.

• Helps relieve inflammatory pain such as sprains, strains, rheumatic pain, backache, and muscular aches.
• Anti-inflammatory action helps decrease joint swelling and stiffness in musculoskeletal conditions.
• When used in emergency settings under medical supervision, aspirin can help improve survival in acute heart attack by its antiplatelet effect.

Warnings & Contraindications:
