Pain after tooth extraction, after injuries and sprains, with inflammation of an organ or after surgery - whatever the reason for its appearance, it is always a very unpleasant phenomenon. Pharmacology today has reached the peak of its development. Pain does not need to be endured - it can be easily eliminated.
Anti-inflammatory powder is absorbed faster than tablets. Also, its advantage is that it causes less irritation of the walls of the gastric mucosa. The article describes the most effective painkillers and anti-inflammatory powders. Be sure to consult your doctor before using any remedy.
Pain Relieving & Anti-Inflammatory Powder Top List
When do we use analgesics (painkillers)? This is an unbearable toothache, migraine, joint pain of various etiologies, after injuries, sprains and large cuts. All theseconditions can be easily managed at home with an anti-inflammatory powder. Such compounds have an analgesic effect, reduce swelling at the site of inflammation. Of course, there are diseases and conditions in which the pain is much stronger (oncological diseases, fractures, wound healing after surgery, etc.). In this case, of course, the action of the anesthetic powder for pain will be small. You will need prescription drugs that have narcotic potential - we will not describe them in this article.
So, the list of the most popular and effective drugs with anti-inflammatory and analgesic action, the release form of which is powder:
- "Nimesil".
- "Oki".
- "Buprenorphine".
- "Horsepower Arthro-Forte" (used for pain in the joints of various etiologies".
- "Dona".
- "Fervex".
- "Nemulex".
- "AnviMax".
Each of these tools has its pros and cons. The very first criterion by which the patient should choose a remedy is the diagnosis. If you do not know your diagnosis and the causes of pain, you should consult a doctor. It is foolish to take anesthetic tooth powder if the cause of discomfort is impaired functioning of the joints. So before you make a purchase in a pharmacy, make sure you know exactly what you are going to treat.
The second criterion is the absence of contraindications to taking one orother anti-inflammatory drug. The powder can relieve the symptoms of the current disease, but in the long run lead to serious complications. Many drugs are forbidden to be taken by people with pathologies of the liver and kidneys. Before taking this or that anti-inflammatory drug in powder, be sure to read the instructions and make sure that there are no contraindications for taking.
The third important criterion is the cost of the drug. Those funds that are listed in the article do not require a prescription from a doctor (except for Buprenorphine). So the purchase itself is not difficult. However, you can often save money by choosing a cheaper analogue. For example, the drug "Nimesil" and "Nemulex" contain the same active ingredient in the same concentration, but their cost is slightly different.

"AnviMax" in the form of a powder for pain caused by SARS and influenza
"AnviMax" is a popular and cheap anti-inflammatory powder for colds. Unlike Fervex, AnviMax does not contain pheniramine maleate, so after taking it there is no drowsiness and lethargy. However, much depends on the course of the disease. If the patient shows all the symptoms of SARS, then it makes sense to think not only about taking anti-inflammatory powders, but also about taking drugs to increase the body's defenses (immunity).
AnviMax includes the following components:
- rimantadine hydrochloride (it fights SARS at the very beginning of the disease, so the drug can also be used as a prophylactic);
- paracetamol (has a powerful antipyretic effect, relieves sore throat, headaches, muscle spasms);

"AnviMax" belongs to the category of combined medicines, as it contains several biologically active components in its composition. Thus, therapy with this drug is complex, even when only one position is included in the conservative sanitation scheme, and therefore attention should be paid to the mechanisms of action of each component separately (paracetamol, rimantadine hydrochloride and ascorbic acid).
