Introduction
Rejulox is a prescription medication that contains the active ingredient Aflapin. It is available in capsule form and is commonly used to address certain health conditions.
Uses
Rejulox is primarily prescribed to provide relief from joint pain and inflammation caused by conditions such as osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. It helps to reduce pain, improve joint mobility, and enhance overall joint health.
Dosage and Administration
The recommended dosage for Rejulox may vary depending on the severity of the condition and the individual’s response to the medication. Follow the instructions provided by your healthcare professional. Generally, the usual dosage is one capsule taken orally, twice daily with meals. Swallow the capsule whole with a glass of water, without crushing or chewing it.
Mechanism of Action
Rejulox contains Aflapin, which is derived from Boswellia serrata, a plant known for its anti-inflammatory properties. Aflapin works by inhibiting certain enzymes that contribute to the inflammatory response in the body. This helps to reduce joint swelling, pain, and stiffness commonly associated with arthritis.
Side Effects
Common side effects may include mild gastrointestinal disturbances such as indigestion, bloating, or diarrhea. These side effects are usually temporary and resolve on their own. However, if you experience any severe or persistent side effects, seek medical attention immediately.

As with any medication, follow your healthcare professional’s instructions and adhere to the prescribed dosage.
