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