Indications & Clinical Uses

  • Mexa-Vit C combines an analgesic and a vitamin, acting on pain‑related pathways and supporting immune function.
  • Fever: reduces elevated body temperature.
  • Mild to moderate pain: alleviates headache, muscle aches and other discomfort.
  • Vitamin C deficiency: restores normal ascorbic acid levels.
  • Immune support: contributes to normal immune system function.
  • Common cold symptoms: helps alleviate headache and supports immune response.

How It Works

  • Paracetamol exerts its analgesic and antipyretic effect by inhibiting cyclooxygenase enzymes in the central nervous system, which reduces prostaglandin synthesis and lowers the hypothalamic set‑point for temperature. Ascorbic Acid acts as a potent antioxidant and serves as a cofactor for several enzymatic reactions, including collagen hydroxylation and neurotransmitter synthesis, thereby supporting immune defence and tissue repair. The combined formulation allows simultaneous pain relief and vitamin C replenishment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Mexa-Vit C is an over‑the‑counter oral product that combines paracetamol and vitamin C. It is used to relieve mild to moderate pain such as headache or muscle aches, to reduce fever, and to supplement vitamin C in individuals with low dietary intake or increased physiological demand.

Paracetamol provides analgesic and antipyretic effects by inhibiting cyclooxygenase enzymes in the central nervous system, which lowers prostaglandin production. This reduces the perception of pain and resets the hypothalamic temperature set‑point, helping to lower fever.

The appropriate dose of Mexa-Vit C is determined by a qualified healthcare professional based on the individual’s age, weight, medical condition and other medications. Patients should follow the prescriber’s instructions and not exceed the recommended amount.

Safety in pregnancy and lactation has not been fully established for the combination. Women who are pregnant, planning a pregnancy, or breastfeeding should consult their physician before using Mexa-Vit C to weigh potential benefits against any risks.

To place an order, submit an enquiry on the Mexa-Vit C product page at gnhindia.com, specifying the required quantity. GNH India works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any necessary import documentation.

Mexa-Vit C offers the analgesic effect of paracetamol together with vitamin C supplementation, which is not present in standard paracetamol tablets. This dual action may be advantageous for patients seeking both pain relief and additional antioxidant support, whereas pure analgesics lack the vitamin component.

Store Mexa-Vit C at ambient temperature, preferably below 25 °C. Keep the tablets in the original packaging, protect them from moisture, direct sunlight and excessive heat to maintain potency and stability.

Mexa-Vit C is taken orally, usually with a glass of water. The tablet should be swallowed whole and not chewed or crushed, unless otherwise directed by a healthcare professional.

Serious risks include severe allergic reactions such as anaphylaxis, liver injury especially when taken in excess or with pre‑existing liver disease, and rare blood disorders like agranulocytosis. Immediate medical attention is required if any signs of these conditions appear.

Individuals with known hypersensitivity to paracetamol, ascorbic acid, or any excipients in the tablet should avoid Mexa-Vit C. Patients with severe liver impairment, certain metabolic disorders, or those taking multiple paracetamol‑containing products should also refrain from use unless advised by a physician.
