Osicare Plus Tablet is taken orally.

Osicare Plus Tablet contains two active ingredients:

• Diacerein (50 mg): Diacerein works by inhibiting interleukin-1 (IL-1), a protein that causes inflammation and cartilage degradation in your joints. By reducing IL-1 synthesis, release, and activity, diacerein slows the breakdown of collagen and proteoglycans, both integral parts of the cartilage matrix. It also aids in the stimulation of cartilage growth factors.

• Glucosamine Sulfate Potassium Chloride (750 mg): Glucosamine is a component of the cartilage matrix and synovial fluid, which lubricates your joints. Supplementing with glucosamine stimulates the synthesis of these cartilage components. Moreover, glucosamine sulfate hinders inflammatory pathways induced by IL-1 and blocks the activation of matrix metalloproteinases, enzymes that break down cartilage. It also promotes the incorporation of sulfur into cartilage, necessary for producing proteoglycans that maintain cartilage health and joint lubrication.

• Store Osicare Plus Tablet in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture.

• The ideal storage temperature is room temperature.

• Keep it out of sight and reach of children for safety.

• Always check the expiry date before use to ensure the medicine is safe to take.

• Regular gentle exercises such as swimming or cycling can maintain joint mobility and reduce stiffness, crucial when managing osteoarthritis.

• Opt for a balanced diet rich in Omega-3 fatty acids (found in fish like salmon and mackerel) which help decrease inflammation, beneficial for those using Osicare Plus Tablet.
