Both Cetal and Cetal Sinus are used to relieve pain and fever, but they differ in their pharmaceutical composition. Cital Sens contains an additional ingredient to relieve nasal and sinus congestion. Understanding this difference helps determine the most appropriate medication for symptom relief.
Cetal Tablets Ingredients
Cetal tablets contain the active ingredient paracetamol, 500 mg per tablet. Paracetamol acts as a pain reliever by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins in the brain and nervous system. It also acts as a fever reducer by affecting the temperature-regulating center in the brain.
Cetal Sinus Tablets Ingredients
Cetal Sinus tablets contain a combination of two active ingredients that work together to relieve pain, fever, and nasal congestion:
Paracetamol: At the same concentration as Cital (500 mg), it acts as a pain reliever and fever reducer.
Pseudoephedrine: A decongestant that works by constricting blood vessels in the nose and sinuses, helping to reduce swelling and pressure and ease breathing.
