Difficulty In Climbing Stairs, Take Xeroflam-s, Orcerin GM. Any Side Effects ?
Hello Dr, I have difficulty in climbing stairs. I am 58 years old. The Orthopedic dr asked me to take xeroflam-s and Orcerin GM for 10 days. I understand that Xeroflam is a pain killer; I have pain only when I climb stairs. Kindly advise whether I should take it even though I have no pain normally? Also, please tell me the side effects of Orcerin.

Hello,
Thanks for your query.
Orcerin-GM contains Diacerein, Glucosamine and Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM). The only actual medication in this is the Diacerein, the other two products are supplements that are believed to help with joint pain and mobility. Common side effects may include: nausea, drowsiness and diarrhea.
I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query.
Take care
