About Cudase D 50mg/10mg Tablet

DICLOFENAC+SERRATIOPEPTIDASE belongs to the class of drugs known as 'non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug' (NSAID). It is a fixed-dose combination composed of diclofenac and serratiopeptidase. Pain can be temporary (acute) or lifelong (chronic) in nature. Acute pain is for short time caused by damage to the tissues of the muscle, bone, or organs. While, chronic pain lasts for life long caused due of nerve damage, osteoarthritis, and dental pain due to damage to the tooth nerve, infection, decay, extraction, or injury.

DICLOFENAC+SERRATIOPEPTIDASE is used in the reduction of pain and inflammation due to bone or soft tissue injury, resolution of postoperative inflammation, edema (swollen tissue with fluid), and pain. Diclofenac works by blocking the action of a chemical messenger known as cyclo-oxygenase (COX) which causes pain and swelling in the injured or damaged tissue. Serratiopeptidase is a proteolytic enzyme that helps in the breakdown of insoluble protein (fibrin) a by-product of blood clots into smaller units. It also causes thinning of the fluids in the body as a result of injury, thereby making fluid drainage smoother in the swollen tissue.

You can take DICLOFENAC+SERRATIOPEPTIDASE with food or without food. It should be swallowed whole with a glass of water. Do not chew, bite, or break it. Your doctor will advise you on how often you take your tablets based on your medical condition. Stop taking this medicine if you experience tightness of the chest, breathing difficulties, fever, skin rashes, mouth sores, and other mucous membranes causing ulcers, or any signs of hypersensitivity (allergy). Most of these side effects of DICLOFENAC+SERRATIOPEPTIDASE do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

Try not to stop taking this medicine of your own. Do not take DICLOFENAC+SERRATIOPEPTIDASE if you are allergic to painkillers like aspirin, ibuprofen, naproxen, or diclofenac. It is not recommended for use in children. DICLOFENAC+SERRATIOPEPTIDASE may be associated with a small increased risk of heart attack myocardial infarction.
