What is Acupan?
Acupan containing the active ingredient nefopam hydrochloride is a type of medication known as a non opioid analgesic drug. It works by interrupting the pain messages being sent to the brain as well as acting on the brain to stop pain messages from being felt. It is most commonly used for relieving pain after an operation, dental pain or joint and muscle pain caused by cancer. The medication generally has fewer side effects than strong opioid painkillers.

How is Acupan used?
Acupan is usually taken 3 times per day or as directed by a doctor. The tablets can be taken with or without food but should be taken with some water. Contact a doctor for the correct dosage as it will depend on the patient's condition and their response to the medication. Do not take more than the prescribed dose without contacting a doctor as it can lead to severe adverse effects.
