Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about ENZOHEAL-D TABLET

What is ENZOHEAL-D TABLET used for?

ENZOHEAL-D TABLET is primarily used to relieve pain, swelling, and inflammation associated with various conditions. These include musculoskeletal and arthritic conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis. It also provides relief from muscle pain, backache, toothache, ear and throat pain, post-surgical discomfort, tendonitis, bursitis, wounds, fever, and injuries.

How does ENZOHEAL-D TABLET work?

ENZOHEAL-D TABLET contains a combination of four active ingredients: Trypsin, Bromelain, Rutoside, and Diclofenac.

Rutoside is a flavonoid with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects; it strengthens blood vessel walls, reduces fluid leakage, prevents cell damage, and improves blood circulation. Diclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that reduces pain, swelling, and fever by blocking the release of specific chemical messengers (prostaglandins) in the body responsible for inflammation.
