How Serratiopeptidase 10mg and Diclofenac Sodium 50mg Tablets Works
Diclofenac Sodium is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that works by blocking the production of prostaglandins, chemicals in the body that cause pain and inflammation. Serratiopeptidase is a proteolytic enzyme that helps break down non-living tissue, such as blood clots and inflammatory byproducts, thereby reducing swelling and promoting faster healing. Together, they provide enhanced pain relief and anti-inflammatory effects.
