What Medicines Will Help In Reducing Pain Due To Shoulder Dislocation?
My grand mum dislocated her shoulder a couple of hours ago and we can get a doctor to set it only tomorrow. She has been prescribed Enzoflam for the pain but it doesn't seem to be very effective. She needed a second tablet in under 4 hours. Is there anything we can do to alleviate her pain till tomorrow?

Hi there.
The best treatment currently for her would be to alternate with Tramodol and Enzoflam medication every 3 to 4 hours.
Both these medications are from a different class and don't interact with each other.
Just watch out for sedation and vomiting caused by Tramodol. ....which if does happen , will require dose reduction.
Also take an antacid like Esmoprazole .
Do not take medicines empty stomach.
I hope my advice has helped.
Good luck
