GLUCOZONE TABLET is a combination of Diacerein, Glucosamine, and Methyl Sulfonyl Methane which belongs to the group of medicines called proteoglycan synthesis stimulators and nutritional supplements, respectively. It is used in the management of osteoarthritis. Osteoarthritis is a condition that causes pain, swelling, and stiffness in the joints of the hands, knees, hips, and spine.
In osteoarthritis, the cartilage between the bones in the joint breaks down, which in turn causes the affected bones to slowly get bigger. The joint cartilage often breaks down because of mechanical stress or biochemical changes within the body, causing the bone underneath to fail. GLUCOZONE TABLET is not recommended for use in patients with liver problems.

GLUCOZONE TABLET is generally not recommended for use among women who are pregnant or breastfeeding. GLUCOZONE TABLET is not recommended for use in children and adolescents (18 years and below).
