About Leecrina Tablet

Leecrina Tablet is an oral prescription medicine used to relieve pain, swelling, and stiffness caused by osteoarthritis. It combines a pain-relieving anti-inflammatory medicine with a medicine that helps slow the breakdown of joint cartilage, improving joint function and making everyday movements more comfortable over time.

For the best results, it is important to take Leecrina Tablet regularly and consistently exactly as your doctor has prescribed. This medication should be taken with food to reduce the chance of stomach irritation. Along with taking Leecrina Tablet, maintaining a healthy weight, staying physically active with low-impact exercises, and following a balanced diet can help improve joint health and mobility.

While taking Leecrina Tablet, some people may experience common side effects such as diarrhea, nausea, indigestion, stomach pain, or dizziness. These side effects are usually mild, but seek medical attention immediately if you develop severe stomach pain, black or bloody stools, vomiting blood, yellowing of the skin or eyes, or signs of a serious allergic reaction.

Before starting Leecrina Tablet, tell your doctor if you have a history of stomach ulcers, gastrointestinal bleeding, kidney disease, liver disease, heart disease, high blood pressure, or asthma. Do not take Leecrina Tablet if you have severe liver disease, active stomach or intestinal bleeding, or if you are allergic to aceclofenac, diacerein, or other NSAIDs. Your doctor will determine whether Leecrina Tablet is suitable for you.

Leecrina Tablet can interact with blood thinners, corticosteroids, diuretics, blood pressure medicines, and certain other pain relievers, which may increase the risk of side effects or affect treatment. Avoid drinking alcohol while taking Leecrina Tablet, as it can increase the risk of stomach irritation and bleeding. If you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, breastfeeding, or are an older adult, consult your doctor before using Leecrina Tablet.

FAQs

Leecrina Tablet is used to relieve pain and inflammation (swelling) in conditions like osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and ankylosing spondylitis.
Leecrina Tablet is composed of two medicines: Aceclofenac and Diacerine. Aceclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that works by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers that cause pain and inflammation (redness and swelling). Diacerine works by blocking the actions of a certain specific protein that causes swelling, and pain and reduces friction in the joints by the building of cartilage (the soft connective tissue in the bones near the joints) in the joints.
Leecrina Tablet may cause common side effects like nausea, vomiting, indigestion, heartburn, stomach pain, diarrhea, loss of appetite, and intense yellow urine. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
No, Leecrina Tablet does not cure Rheumatoid arthritis, but instead, it helps in reducing the pain and inflammation caused by it as it is a pain killer.
No, do not stop taking Leecrina Tablet suddenly. If you want to stop taking this medicine, consult your doctor so that he/she might gradually reduce the dose to avoid an unwanted increase in pain or inflammation.
No, Leecrina Tablet should ideally not be taken for stomach pain without consulting a physician. This medication can increase the secretion of stomach acid, which may worsen gastritis or an unknown underlying stomach ulcer.
