Bextrin Total Capsule is a combination of five medicines: Aceclofenac, Beta-Cyclodextrin, Trypsin, Bromelain and Rutoside which relieve pain. Aceclofenac is a non- steroidal antiinflammatory drug (NSAID) which works by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) in the brain that cause pain and inflammation (redness and swelling). Beta-Cyclodextrin enhances the effect of Aceclofenac. Trypsin and Bromelain are enzymes. They increase blood supply and make the body produce substances that fight pain and swelling. Rutoside is an antioxidant which protects the body from damage by chemicals (free radicals) and further reduces swelling.
