How it works

Trypsin and Bromelain are proteolytic enzymes that help in the breakdown of proteins involved in swelling and pain. Rutoside is an antioxidant that protects the body from damage by chemicals causing swelling. Aceclofenac stops the release of a chemical called prostaglandins, that increase pain and swelling. Thus, this medicine provides relief from your aches and makes you feel better.
