How Sigflam Forte Tablet works
Sigflam Forte Tablet is a combination of four medicines: Bromelain, Diclofenac, Rutoside and Trypsin Chymotrypsin. Bromelain and Trypsin Chymotrypsin are enzymes. They increase blood supply and make the body produce substances that fight pain and 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). Rutoside is an antioxidant which protects the body from damage by chemicals (free radicals) and further reduces swelling.
