How it works
Apserra Plus Tablet is a combination of four medicines: Trypsin, Bromelain, Rutoside and Diclofenac. Trypsin and Bromelain are enzymes. They increase blood supply and make the body produce substances that fight pain and swelling. Rutoside is an antioxidant which protects the body from damage by chemicals (free radicals) and further reduces swelling. Diclofenac is a non-steroidal antiinflammatory drug (NSAID) which works by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) in the brain that cause pain and inflammation (redness and swelling).

It may also be used to relieve inflammation in rheumatic and degenerative conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. Take it with plenty of fluids an hour before or two hours after a meal. It may increase the severity of your condition at the start of treatment. Continue using it as prescribed by your doctor. It may cause dizziness and blurred vision. Do not drive or do anything requiring concentration until you know how it affects you. It may change the color, consistency, and odor of your stool. This is harmless. Inform your doctor if this bothers you.
