WHAT RHUMANOL IS USED FOR

muscle
inflammatory
conditions such as muscle sprain and
strain, tendonitis (inflammation of the

HOW RHUMANOL WORKS
RHUMANOL
contains

sodium, which belongs to a class of
painkillers

It works by blocking the production of

body
substances
that
cause
inflammation, pain, and swelling in
the muscle and soft tissues.

reactions
such
as
symptoms of asthma, allergic rhinitis

mucous
membrane)
or

(itching
or
hives), to aspirin (medication used to
reduce fever, reduce pain and prevent
blood clot) or other non-steroidal anti-
inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
Do not use this medicine if any of the
above condition applies to you. If you
are not sure, get advice from your
