Medicinal Benefits

The Dianac Plus Tablet compromises two medicines, namely Diacerein and Glucosamine. Diacerein restricts the action of a protein responsible for causing inflammation and destruction of cartilage or osteoarthritis. At the same time, Glucosamine sulfate is a natural protein found in the body used by the body to produce a variety of chemicals responsible for building ligaments, cartilage, tendons, and the thick fluid surrounding joints. Taking Dianac Plus Tablet may either enhance the cartilage and fluid surrounding joints or prevent both components' breakdown. In combination, both help form cartilage (the soft tissue that cushions the joints) and make the joints lubricated for better movement and flexibility. Dianac Plus Tablet relieves pain, thereby improving joint function and helping individuals restore their quality of life. It also increases the cushioning and lubrication of joints, provides relief from pain and easily do physical activity.
