Bencid Tablet

Product Description
Bencid Tablet is a prescription medicine designed to manage and prevent gout by lowering uric acid levels in the body. It supports kidney function to eliminate excess uric acid, reducing the risk of crystal formation in joints and kidneys, which can lead to inflammation, pain, and swelling.

To ensure optimal results, Bencid Tablet should be taken with food, helping to minimize stomach discomfort. Regular use is essential, and the medication should not be stopped without consulting your doctor, even if symptoms improve. Always inform your healthcare provider about any other medicines you are taking, as well as existing heart, kidney, or liver conditions. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should seek medical advice before use.

Key Benefits

• Helps reduce uric acid levels to prevent and treat gout.

• Supports kidney function to remove excess uric acid.

• Reduces joint inflammation, pain, redness, and swelling caused by uric acid crystal buildup.

• May prevent the formation of certain types of kidney stones.

• Suitable for long-term management when taken as prescribed.

How It Works
Bencid Tablet acts as a urine alkalizer, increasing the pH of urine to make it less acidic. This process helps the kidneys excrete uric acid more efficiently, preventing the formation of painful crystals in the joints and reducing the likelihood of gout attacks.

Most side effects are mild and resolve over time. If they persist, contact your doctor. Common reactions may include:

• Nausea and vomiting

• Headache

• Blood-related issues such as decreased white blood cell count or anemia in rare cases

Usage Instructions
Swallow the tablet whole with food, following your doctor’s prescribed dosage and schedule. Do not chew, crush, or break the tablet. Consistency in dosing helps maintain steady uric acid levels and prevent gout attacks.
