Overview

Artrodar 50mg Capsule is a prescription-only medicine (POM) that contains Diacerein 50mg. It is supplied as a capsule and is dispensed in Malaysia only against a valid prescription issued by a registered doctor.

Under Malaysian rules for prescription medicines, this page carries product, safety and handling information only. Your doctor or pharmacist will explain whether this medicine is suitable for you, the dose you should take, and how long you should take it.

On DoctorOnCall, Artrodar 50mg Capsule is reviewed by a licensed doctor through an online consultation and dispensed by a registered pharmacist before delivery. Always follow the instructions on your prescription label and the package insert supplied with the product, and do not share this medicine with anyone else.

Directions for Use

Take Artrodar 50mg Capsule with food to reduce the chance of stomach upset, swallowing the capsule whole with water. Continue taking it as prescribed even if you do not notice an immediate benefit, since its effect on joint symptoms develops gradually over several weeks.

Dosage

The usual starting dose of Artrodar 50mg Capsule is one 50mg capsule once daily in the evening, which your doctor may increase to 50mg twice daily after the first 2-4 weeks depending on your tolerability. Noticeable improvement in joint symptoms usually takes several weeks, as diacerein acts gradually rather than immediately.

Storage Instructions

Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.
