About Mahout DN Tablet
Mahout DN Tablet is used to reduce the pain of osteoarthritis (OA) in specific large and small joints. Osteoarthritis is a chronic (lifelong) joint condition in which glucosamine sulfate (a chemical found in the human body, especially in joints) is reduced. The body uses this fluid to produce other chemicals required to form ligaments, cartilage, tendons, and the thick fluid that surrounds joints.
Mahout DN Tablet comprises diacerein and glucosamine. Diacerein inhibits the action of a protein responsible for causing inflammation and cartilage destruction, thereby alleviating symptoms of osteoarthritis. Glucosamine produces various chemicals responsible for building ligaments, cartilage, tendons, and the thick fluid surrounding joints.
Sometimes, you may experience certain common side effects such as headache, tiredness, nausea, abdominal pain, indigestion, diarrhoea, constipation, and wind. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and resolve gradually over time. However, talk to your doctor if you experience these undesirable effects persistently.
Inform your doctor if you are allergic to it. Mahout DN Tablet is not allowed to be used by children younger than 18. Consult your doctor if you have ever had blood clots or circulation problems in your legs or if you are pregnant or planning to be pregnant, as this may harm an unborn baby. Tell your doctor if you are breastfeeding, as it may not be safe to breastfeed a baby while taking Mahout DN Tablet.
