Medicine Description relaxiged 20 caps
Relaxiged 20 capsules is a medication that combines chlorzoxazone and paracetamol to provide relief from muscle spasms and associated pain. Chlorzoxazone acts as a muscle relaxant by inhibiting the spinal reflexes at the level of the spinal cord, which helps to reduce the tone of skeletal muscles and alleviate discomfort arising from muscle spasms. Paracetamol, on the other hand, is a widely recognized analgesic and antipyretic that works by inhibiting the synthesis of prostaglandins in the brain, effectively reducing pain and fever. The synergistic effect of these two active ingredients enhances the overall efficacy in managing pain and muscle tension, leading to improved mobility and comfort for patients.
