WHAT NUROMOL IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR Your medicine is called Nuromol 200mg/500 mg tablets (called Nuromol throughout the rest of this leaflet). Nuromol contains two active ingredients (which make the medicine work). THESE ARE IBUPROFEN AND PARACETAMOL. Ibuprofen belongs to a group of medicines known as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). NSAIDs work by reducing pain, reducing swelling and lowering high temperatures. Paracetamol is an analgesic which works in a different way from ibuprofen to relieve pain and fever. Nuromol is used for the temporary relief of mild to moderate pain associated with migraine, headache, backache, period pain, dental pain, rheumatic and muscular pain, pain of non-serious arthritis, cold and flu symptoms, sore throat and fever. 2.
