About Kicpain Xl Capsule

Kicpain Xl Capsule belongs to the class of 'painkillers' primarily used to treat signs and symptoms of osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis in patients at high risk of developing pain killer-induced gastric and duodenal ulcers and their complications. Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease in which the body's immune system attacks its own cells and causes joint pain with inflammation. 

Kicpain Xl Capsule is a combination of two drugs: Aceclofenac and Misoprostol. Aceclofenac belongs to the class of Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) and relieves pain. It inhibits cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes and further prevents the formation of chemical messengers, 'prostaglandins' (PGs) that cause pain and swelling at the injured or damaged site. Misoprostol is a prostaglandin analogue that belongs to the class of anti-ulcer agents. It helps prevent ulcers caused by Aceclofenac by protecting the stomach lining and decreasing the acid production in the stomach.

Your doctor will decide the dose and duration based on the severity of your pain. Common side effects of Kicpain Xl Capsule include nausea, vomiting, dizziness, indigestion, stomach pain, diarrhoea, constipation, and heartburn. These side effects are not familiar to everyone and vary individually. However, if the side effects are persistent, please reach out to your doctor.

Before starting Kicpain Xl Capsule , inform your doctor if you have any liver, heart or kidney diseases, high blood pressure, diabetes, stomach ulcers, asthma, and fluid retention. Kicpain Xl Capsule is not recommended during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Kicpain Xl Capsule may cause dizziness, so drive only if you are alert and focused. Kicpain Xl Capsule should not be given to children as safety has not been established. Avoid consuming alcohol along with Kicpain Xl Capsule as it could lead to increased dizziness and risk of stomach bleeding/ulcers. 

Uses of Kicpain Xl Capsule

Treatment of Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid arthritis.

Medicinal Benefits

Kicpain Xl Capsule treats pain, redness, and inflammation (swelling) in patients suffering from osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. It contains Aceclofenac and Misoprostol. Aceclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and relieves pain. It inhibits cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes that further prevent the formation of chemical messengers called 'prostaglandins (PGs). These prostaglandins are produced at injury sites and cause pain and swelling. By blocking the COX enzymes' effect, lesser PGs are made, which reduces mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site. Misoprostol is a prostaglandin analogue and an anti-ulcer agent. Prostaglandins produced in the stomach and intestine protect the lining. Misoprostol helps prevent ulcers caused by Aceclofenac by protecting the stomach lining and decreasing the acid production in the stomach.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Osteoarthritis: It is a degenerative joint disease in which the two ends of the joints come together due to the breakdown of a protective covering of cartilage. Due to the absence of this protective covering, the joints rub against each other, leading to pain and stiffness. Symptoms of osteoarthritis include pain, stiffness, inflammation, and tenderness. The main reason for osteoarthritis is age. The older you are, the more likely you could get osteoarthritis. Hence, it is known as a degenerative disease since the joints wear out as a person ages. Other reasons include a past injury, such as torn cartilage, dislocated joints, and ligament injuries.

Rheumatoid arthritis: It is an autoimmune disease (the body's immune system attacks its tissue), leading to joint pain and damage. Symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis include pain, swelling, stiffness, deformities, and loss of joint function.
