Good Day,
Mefenamic Acid is part of a group of medicines that are called NSAID, which are used to alleviate pain and swelling. The downside of these types of medications is that they also have the tendency to increase blood pressure.
Coffee is a beverage that contains CAFFEINE and is therefore a stimulant. It wakes us up, makes us alert, yet it can also increase blood pressure.
If you combine drinking coffee with Mefenamic Acid, your blood pressure may increase and I do not recommend taking them at the same time.
If you must, take your coffee at a separate time from your mefenamic acid medication.
I hope this answers your question.
Regards,
Doc Joe
