CHLORMEZANONE+PARACETAMOL
About CHLORMEZANONE+PARACETAMOL
CHLORMEZANONE+PARACETAMOL is a combination medicine used to relieve pain due to muscle spasms. Pain is a symptom triggered by the nervous system, causing uncomfortable sensations in the body. Muscle spasms are involuntary contractions of the muscle that can be painful.
CHLORMEZANONE+PARACETAMOL contains Paracetamol and Chlormezanone. Paracetamol works by inhibiting the synthesis of prostaglandins which are responsible for pain and inflammation. Chlormezanone acts on the centres of the brain and spinal cord, where it inhibits the multisynaptic reflex involved in muscle spasms, thereby provides relief from skeletal muscle spasms. Together, CHLORMEZANONE+PARACETAMOL helps in relieving musculoskeletal pain.
You are advised to take CHLORMEZANONE+PARACETAMOL for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience common side-effects such as stomach upset, dizziness, sleepiness, and weakness.
