About TC Act Tablet

TC Act Tablet is used to relieve severe pain and swelling in postoperative wounds and other inflammatory conditions. In a few cases, it may be prescribed for digestive aid.

TC Act Tablet contains Trypsin-chymotrypsin. Trypsin and chymotrypsin are two types of proteases originally synthesized in the pancreas. When taking the trypsin-chymotrypsin combination, the active proteolytic enzymes are ingested and used in addition to the inactive forms the body naturally produces. Trypsin and chymotrypsin give the body the extra boost it might need for the smoother digestion of proteins, reducing inflammation, and fighting infection.

TC Act Tablet should be taken in the dose and duration prescribed by your doctor based on your medical condition. TC Act Tablet is generally safe to use. However, rarely, it may cause an allergic reaction when taken by mouth. Symptoms include itching, shortness of breath, swollen lips or throat, shock, loss of consciousness, and gastric disturbance.

ANALGESICS

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Turmeric and fish oils can help in reducing inflammation in the tissue.

  • Do not go for heavy exercise as it may increase your joint pain in arthritis. Instead, you can do stretching and low-impact aerobic exercises like walking on a treadmill, bike riding, and swimming. You can also increase your muscle strength by lifting light weights.

  • Get adequate sleep, as resting the muscles can help reduce inflammation and swelling.

  • Consume fish like salmon, trout, tuna, and sardines. These fishes are enriched with omega-3 fatty acids that minimize the level of chemicals called cytokines, which may increase inflammation.

  • Sitting posture is important, especially when you have pain and inflammation conditions. Try to sit as little as possible and only for a short time (10-15 min). Use back support like a rolled-up towel to minimize pain at the back of your curve. Keep your hips and knees at a right angle. Besides this, you can use a footrest if required.
