DIMO-P (Diclofenac + Paracetamol )

Diclofenac & Paracetamol Introduction:

Diclofenac+Paracetamol is used for pain relief. It relieves pain in conditions like headache, mild migraine, muscle pain, dental pain, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, osteoarthritis, or painful menses.

How Diclofenac + Paracetamol works:

Diclofenac + Paracetamol is a combination of two medicines: Diclofenac and Paracetamol. These medicines work by blocking the action of chemical messengers responsible for pain, fever and inflammation (redness and swelling).

Benefits of using Diclofenac+ Paracetamol tablets:

The combination of Diclofenac, Paracetamol, in tablets offers several benefits:

  • Pain Relief: Diclofenac and Paracetamol are effective in relieving various types of pain, including joint pain, muscle pain, back pain, dental pain, and pain associated with inflammation.
  • Anti-inflammatory Action: Diclofenac is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that helps reduce inflammation, swelling, and stiffness in joints and muscles. This can be particularly beneficial for conditions like arthritis.
  • Fever Reduction: Paracetamol (also known as acetaminophen) helps in reducing fever associated with infections or inflammatory conditions.
  • Enzymatic Action: Serratiopeptidase, a proteolytic enzyme, is believed to have anti-inflammatory properties and may help in reducing swelling and promoting tissue healing. It can aid in improving symptoms related to inflammation and injuries.
  • Comprehensive Relief: The combination of these three components in a single tablet provides comprehensive relief by targeting different pathways involved in pain and inflammation. This can result in quicker and more effective relief compared to using each medication alone.
  • Convenience: Using a combination tablet simplifies medication regimen, reducing the number of pills to be taken and potentially improving compliance with treatment.
