Product Description

Diclofenac Potassium 50 mg, Paracetamol 325 mg & Serratiopeptidase 10 mg Tablet IP is a fixed-dose combination medication intended for the short-term management of pain and inflammation. It is commonly prescribed for conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, muscle pain, joint pain, dental pain, postoperative pain, and other inflammatory conditions.

Pain and inflammation arise from the release of chemical mediators at sites of tissue injury. This tablet combines three active ingredients with complementary mechanisms of action to provide effective relief.

Diclofenac Potassium is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that reduces pain and inflammation. Paracetamol offers additional analgesic and antipyretic effects, while Serratiopeptidase aids in reducing swelling by breaking down inflammatory proteins at the affected site.

This medication should be used only under medical supervision and for the prescribed duration, as prolonged use may increase the risk of gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, hepatic, or renal side effects.

Uses

Diclofenac Potassium 50 mg, Paracetamol 325 mg & Serratiopeptidase 10 mg Tablet IP is indicated for the treatment of:

• Pain and inflammation associated with osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis

• Muscle pain, joint pain, and soft tissue injuries

• Dental pain and post-operative pain

• Menstrual pain (dysmenorrhea)

• Ear pain, headache, and mild migraine (as prescribed by a healthcare professional)

How it Works

This tablet contains three active ingredients:

• Diclofenac Potassium: Inhibits cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes, thereby reducing the production of prostaglandins responsible for pain, swelling, and inflammation.

• Paracetamol: Acts primarily in the central nervous system to relieve pain and reduce fever, with minimal anti-inflammatory action.

• Serratiopeptidase: An enzyme that breaks down inflammatory proteins and reduces swelling at the affected site.

Together, these ingredients provide synergistic relief from pain and help mitigate inflammation and swelling.

Benefits

• Provides effective relief from pain and inflammation

• Reduces swelling associated with musculoskeletal and joint conditions
