Medicinal Benefits:

Doloset 20mg Tablet DT belongs to the group of pain killers known as NSAIDs (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs). Doloset 20mg Tablet DT is used to relieve symptoms associated with osteoarthritis, and rheumatoid arthritis, such as stiffness, swelling, and joint pain. Doloset 20mg Tablet DT works by blocking the effect of a chemical messenger in the body, known as cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes that make another chemical prostaglandins. 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.
