About Welknee-M Tablet

Welknee-M Tablet is used to treat symptoms associated with osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease in which the tissues in the joint break down over time. Welknee-M Tablet relieves pain, thereby improving joint functioning and helping an individual restore his/her quality of life.

Welknee-M Tablet contains Glucosamine, Diacerein and Methylsulfonylmethane. Glucosamine strengthens the cartilage and fluid surrounding joints. Diacerein restricts the action of a protein responsible for causing inflammation and destruction of cartilage. Methylsulfonylmethane reduces joint pain, lowers inflammation, improves skin health, reduces allergic symptoms, and increases recovery after exercise.

In some cases, 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 will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.
