Dicrose MR Tablet is a combination of a muscle relaxant (Chlorzoxazone) and two pain relieving medicines (Diclofenac and Paracetamol). The muscle relaxant works on the centers in the brain and spinal cord to relieve muscle stiffness or spasm, thereby improving movement of muscles. The pain relieving medicines work by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers in the brain that cause pain and inflammation.
What is Dicrose MR Tablet?
Dicrose MR Tablet contains diclofenac, paracetamol, and chlorzoxazone. These medications work together to relieve muscle pain. Chlorzoxazone acts on the central nervous system as a muscle relaxant, while diclofenac and paracetamol target the chemical prostaglandins that cause pain and inflammation.
Is Dicrose MR Tablet safe?
Dicrose MR Tablet is generally safe for most patients. However, it can lead to common side effects such as nausea, vomiting, heartburn, stomach upset, diarrhea, loss of appetite, dry mouth, weakness, sleepiness, and other rare or less frequent side effects. Inform your doctor if you experience persistent symptoms after taking the medication.
Can I stop taking Dicrose MR Tablet when my pain is relieved?
Dicrose MR Tablet should be continued as prescribed by your healthcare provider for the recommended duration. If your pain is temporary, discontinuation might be considered under their guidance.
