About Prodase 10Mg Tablet

Prodase 10Mg Tablet is primarily prescribed for the treatment of pain and associated inflammation. It is helpful in relieving swelling and pain in inflammatory disease and also in postoperative wounds.

A chemical that’s derived from the silkworm, in many countries, Prodase 10Mg Tablet is used as a diet supplement. This medicine is used to manage conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, back pain, fibromyalgia, osteoporosis, migraine and tension related headaches as well as carpal tunnel syndrome.

Other conditions that involve inflammation and pain such as laryngitis, sinusitis, sore throat, infections of the ear, swelling post-surgery, thrombophlebitis (swelling of the veins along with the clotting of blood) and IBDs such as Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis can be treated using Prodase 10Mg Tablet.

In certain cases, Prodase 10Mg Tablet is also recommended for heart disorders and atherosclerosis. Among women and nursing mothers, conditions such as fibrocystic breasts (formation of non-malignant lumps in the breasts) and pain related to breast engorgement (marked by the production of excess breast milk) can be remedied with this medicine.

The benefits don’t just end here; disorders such as diabetes, asthma and conditions such as ulcers in the legs and empyema (marked by the accumulation of pus) can be treated as well. Prodase 10Mg Tablet works by aiding protein breakdown by the body, thus reducing mucous formation and inflammation.

Pregnant women and breast-feeding mothers should avoid the use of Prodase 10Mg Tablet since its efficacy isn’t evaluated properly.
