Gestakind 10 Tablet 10 contains Isoxsuprine (10 mg). The medicine works on the body in the following ways:

• Vasodilation: Isoxsuprine relaxes and widens your blood vessels, improving blood flow to your muscles and the peripheral parts of your body. This is particularly beneficial for conditions like Raynaud's phenomenon and arteriosclerosis where improved blood circulation is necessary.

• Uterine Relaxation: It reduces contractions of the smooth muscles in your uterus. This helps in managing premature labour and reducing the risk of miscarriage.

• Nerve Signal Modulation: Isoxsuprine blocks certain nerve signals that can cause your blood vessels to constrict. This action further promotes vasodilation and improves blood flow.

• Store Gestakind 10 Tablet 10 at room temperature, specifically below 30°C.

• Keep the medicine away from light and moisture to maintain its effectiveness.

• Always keep this medication out of reach and sight of children.

• Make sure you use Gestakind 10 Tablet 10 before the expiry date mentioned on the packaging.

• If you have rheumatoid arthritis or psoriatic arthritis, consider incorporating anti-inflammatory foods into your diet. These might include fruits, vegetables, and whole grains which can help manage inflammation in the body.

• For managing ulcerative colitis, try maintaining a balanced diet but avoid foods that may trigger your symptoms. This could be dairy products or spicy foods, which can vary from person to person. Always consult your doctor for personalised dietary advice.
