Basic Information

Mechanism Of Action

Xymepill DS Tablet is a combination of four medicines: Trypsin, Bromelain, Rutoside and Diclofenac. This medication helps in relieving pain and swelling (inflammation). It works by lowering the levels of those chemical substances in the body which cause pain and swelling (inflammation).

Pharmacokinets

Trypsin is a serine protease that plays an essential role in protein hydrolysis and absorption in mammals. When converted from its zymogen trypsinogen, trypsin is available as an active peptide hydrolase (EC 3.4. 21.4) form to cleave peptide chains, mainly at the carboxyl side of the amino acids lysine or arginine.Depending on the surface area and depth of the wound, bromelain blood serum concentrations of no more than 40 µg/ml are expected, with peak concentrations reached after 2 to 4 hours. The terminal half-life varied between 8.5 and 19.9 hours in studies.Rutoside is a natural flavone derivative. It has anti- inflammatory, anti-allergy and immunomodulating activity 20. Rutoside inhibits platelet aggregation, as well as decreasing capillary permeability, making the blood thinner and improving circulation. Rutin also strengthens the capillaries.Diclofenac binds extensively to plasma albumin. The area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) of diclofenac is proportional to the dose for oral doses between 25 to 150 mg. Substantial concentrations of drug are attained in synovial fluid, which is the proposed site of action for NSAIDs.
