How it Works

Elnim-D Soft Gelatin Capsule is a combination of two medicines: Diclofenac and Nimesulide which relieve pain. Diclofenac and Nimesulide are non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID). They work by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers in the brain that are responsible for pain, fever, and inflammation (redness).
