DICLOFENAC POTASSIUM+TRYPSIN CHYMOTRYPSIN
About DICLOFENAC POTASSIUM+TRYPSIN CHYMOTRYPSIN
DICLOFENAC POTASSIUM+TRYPSIN CHYMOTRYPSIN is a combination medicine used to relieve pain and inflammation associated with osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, muscle pain, bone and joint pain. Pain is a symptom triggered by the nervous system, causing uncomfortable sensations in the body. Arthritis, also known as joint inflammation, is the tenderness and swelling of the joints. Symptoms include swelling, pain, and stiffness.
DICLOFENAC POTASSIUM+TRYPSIN CHYMOTRYPSIN contains Diclofenac potassium and Trypsin chymotrypsin. Diclofenac potassium works by blocking the effect of chemical messengers that cause pain and inflammation. Trypsin chymotrypsin breaks down the abnormal proteins at the site of inflammation, thereby reducing swelling and inflammation. Together, DICLOFENAC POTASSIUM+TRYPSIN CHYMOTRYPSIN provides relief from pain and inflammation.
You are advised to take DICLOFENAC POTASSIUM+TRYPSIN CHYMOTRYPSIN for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience common side-effects such as nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, loss of appetite, indigestion, and diarrhoea. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. DICLOFENAC POTASSIUM+TRYPSIN CHYMOTRYPSIN may cause drowsiness and dizziness, so drive with caution. DICLOFENAC POTASSIUM+TRYPSIN CHYMOTRYPSIN is not recommended for children as safety and efficacy have not been established. Avoid consuming alcohol with DICLOFENAC POTASSIUM+TRYPSIN CHYMOTRYPSIN as it could lead to increased drowsiness and dizziness; it might also increase the risk of stomach bleeding. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and medicines to rule out any interactions.
Uses of DICLOFENAC POTASSIUM+TRYPSIN CHYMOTRYPSIN
Medicinal Benefits
DICLOFENAC POTASSIUM+TRYPSIN CHYMOTRYPSIN is a combination of two drugs, namely: Diclofenac potassium and Trypsin chymotrypsin. DICLOFENAC POTASSIUM+TRYPSIN CHYMOTRYPSIN is used to relieve pain and inflammation associated with osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, muscle pain, bone and joint pain. Diclofenac potassium is an NSAID (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug) which works by blocking the effect of chemical messengers called prostaglandins by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, thereby reduces mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site. Trypsin chymotrypsin is a combination of enzymes. It breaks down the abnormal proteins at the site of inflammation, thereby reduces swelling and inflammation by increasing the blood supply at the affected area. Together, DICLOFENAC POTASSIUM+TRYPSIN CHYMOTRYPSIN provides relief from pain and inflammation.

Disease/Condition Glossary
Pain: Pain is a symptom triggered by the nervous system, causing uncomfortable sensations in the body. Pain may be dull or sharp; it might be constant or may come and go. The tolerance level of pain might vary from person to person. Pain can be generalized (overall body aches) or localized (affecting a specific area of the body). The common causes of pain include headache, muscle strain, cramps, cuts, bone fractures, and arthritis.
Osteoarthritis: It is a joint disease in which the two ends of the joints come together due to the breakdown of a protective covering called cartilage. Due to the absence of this protective covering, the joints rub against each other, leading to pain and stiffness. Symptoms include pain, stiffness, inflammation and tenderness.
Rheumatoid arthritis: It is an auto-immune disease (the body's immune system attacks its tissue), leading to joint pain and damage. Symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis include pain, swelling, stiffness, deformities and loss of joint function.
Ankylosing spondylitis: It causes pain and stiffness in the spine. The pain generally starts in the lower back and can spread to the neck, damaged joints, or other body parts. Ankylosing spondylitis symptoms include decreased flexibility which usually leads to a hunched-forward posture, pain in the back and joints.
