About TOLDIN 400MG TABLET

TOLDIN 400MG TABLET belongs to the group of pain killers known as NSAIDs (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs) used to treat mild to moderate pain in osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease in which the two ends of the joints come together due to the breakdown of a protective covering (cartilage). Rheumatoid arthritis is an auto-immune disease (the body's immune system attacks its tissue) which leads to joint pain and damage.

 

TOLDIN 400MG TABLET works by blocking the effect of a chemical messenger in the body, known as cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes that make another chemical prostaglandins. These prostaglandins are produced at injury sites and cause pain and swelling. By blocking the effect of COX enzymes, fewer prostaglandins are produced, which reduces mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site.

 

Take TOLDIN 400MG TABLET with or after food. You are advised to take TOLDIN 400MG TABLET for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side-effects such as stomach pain, diarrhoea, indigestion, headache, loss of appetite, nausea and vomiting. Most of these side-effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you should talk to your doctor if you experience these side-effects persistently.

 

Consult your doctor before taking TOLDIN 400MG TABLET if you are pregnant or breastfeeding; your doctor will prescribe TOLDIN 400MG TABLET only if the benefits outweigh the risks. TOLDIN 400MG TABLET may cause drowsiness and dizziness, so drive with caution. TOLDIN 400MG TABLET is not recommended for children as safety and efficacy have not been established. Avoid consuming alcohol along with TOLDIN 400MG TABLET as it could lead to increased drowsiness and dizziness. It could also increase the risk of stomach bleeding.

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, thus known as degenerative disease, meaning that 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 auto-immune disease (the body’s immune system attacks its tissue) which leads to joint pain and damage. Symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis include pain, swelling, stiffness, deformities and loss of joint function.
