Dvnac-TH Injection

Dvnac-TH Injection is a combination medication primarily used to treat acute musculoskeletal pain and muscle spasms. Pain is a symptom triggered by the nervous system, causing uncomfortable sensations in the body.

Dvnac-TH Injection is a combination of Diclofenac and Thiocolchicoside. Diclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (pain killer/NSAID) with analgesic properties. It inhibits cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes and further prevents the formation of chemical messengers, 'prostaglandins' (PGs), that cause pain and swelling at the injured or damaged site. Thiocolchicoside is a muscle relaxant that works on the centres of the spinal cord and brain. This process helps reduce muscle stiffness and improves muscle movements, thus relieving pain due to muscle spasms.

A healthcare professional will administer this medicine. Common side effects of Dvnac-TH Injection include headache, stomach upset, constipation, dizziness, drowsiness, diarrhoea, pain, swelling, and redness at the injection site. These side effects are not familiar to everyone and vary individually. However, if the side effects are persistent, please consult your doctor.

Before starting Dvnac-TH Injection, inform your doctor if you have any liver, heart or kidney diseases, high blood pressure, diabetes, stomach ulcers, asthma, and auto-immune conditions like systemic lupus erythematosus. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult their doctor before using Dvnac-TH Injection. Avoid consuming alcohol while undergoing treatment with Dvnac-TH Injection. This medicine is not recommended for children and adolescents below 18 years of age as safety has not been established. However, please seek medical advice.

Dvnac-TH Injection treats acute musculoskeletal pain and muscle spasms. It contains Diclofenac and Thiocolchicoside. Diclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and relieves pain. It inhibits cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes that further prevent the formation of chemical messengers called 'prostaglandins' (PGs). These prostaglandins are produced at injury sites and cause pain and swelling. By blocking the COX enzymes' effect, lesser PGs are produced, which reduces mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site. Thiocolchicoside is a muscle relaxant that works on the centres of the spinal cord and brain. This process helps reduce muscle stiffness and improves muscle movements, thus relieving pain due to muscle spasms.

Inform your doctor if you have any liver, heart or kidney diseases, high blood pressure, diabetes, stomach ulcers, gastrointestinal diseases, asthma, and autoimmune diseases (systemic lupus erythematosus) before being treated with Dvnac-TH Injection. Please consult your doctor before starting Dvnac-TH Injection if you have high cholesterol, chickenpox, porphyria (rare inherited disorder), hereditary disorders like Lapp lactase deficiency (lactose intolerance), galactose intolerance, glucose-galactose malabsorption (small intestines not being able to absorb and use glucose and galactose), fits, and blood clotting disorders. Do not take any other NSAIDs for pain relief along with Dvnac-TH Injection unless prescribed. Stop using Dvnac-TH Injection and consult your doctor immediately if you have stomach pain or any signs of bleeding in the intestine or stomach, such as blood in stools. Dvnac-TH Injection is not recommended for pregnant and breastfeeding women; hence, please seek medical advice. This medicine may cause dizziness and drowsiness, so drive only if you are alert and focused. Dvnac-TH Injection is not recommended in children and adolescents below 18 years as safety and efficacy are not established.

• Let your doctor know that you are taking Dvnac-TH Injection if you are undergoing any medical tests.
