Labdic Relief Mr Tablet belongs to the class of drugs known as 'non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug' (NSAID).

Labdic Relief Mr Tablet is a fixed-dose combination composed of three medicines namely: Diclofenac, Paracetamol and Chlorzoxazone.

Paracetamol acts as a mild analgesic (mild pain reducer) and antipyretic (fever reducer) which enhances the pain relief action of Diclofenac. Third medicine i.e. Chlorzoxazone is a muscle relaxant, helps by blocking nerve impulses or pain sensations sent by the brain and causes relaxation of muscles.
