Frequently asked questions

This treatment helps relieve period pain (dysmenorrhea), including cramps, lower abdominal discomfort, and associated symptoms such as headaches or back pain. Mefenamic Acid and Feminax Express work by reducing inflammation and blocking pain signals, providing fast and effective relief during menstruation.
  • Mefenamic Acid is usually taken every 6–8 hours during periods, with food or water to reduce stomach irritation.
  • Feminax Express is typically taken at the onset of period pain as a single dose. Follow the dosing instructions carefully, do not exceed the recommended amount, and take with water. Starting the treatment at the first sign of pain can provide faster relief.
These treatments are generally well-tolerated. Some people may experience mild gastrointestinal discomfort, nausea, or dizziness. Take with food if you are prone to stomach upset. Avoid alcohol while using these medications. Do not use if you have known allergies to NSAIDs or certain medical conditions such as severe kidney or liver problems, unless advised by your prescriber.
You should notice relief from cramps and associated discomfort within 30–60 minutes of taking the medication. Pain should become more manageable, allowing you to continue daily activities. If pain persists or worsens despite treatment, consult your healthcare provider.
Starting is simple, quick, and safe: complete the online questionnaire and place your order. A qualified prescriber will review your answers, and once approved, your treatment is dispatched for next-day delivery (from the time your prescription is approved).
