About Chymograce-KT Tablet

Chymograce-KT Tablet belongs to a group of medicines called pain killer/Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) used for the treatment of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, gouty arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis, acute pain, chronic low back pain, and muscle spasms.
