Myogesic tablets are a combination medication specifically designed to provide fast and effective relief from annoying muscle pain and spasms. This medication contains a balanced combination of two active ingredients that work together to address the source of the pain and soothe cramping muscles: paracetamol and orphenadrine citrate.
Paracetamol belongs to the class of analgesics and antipyretics. It works primarily by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins in the brain and central nervous system, chemicals that cause pain and fever. Orphenadrine citrate belongs to the class of centrally acting skeletal muscle relaxants. It works by inhibiting certain neurotransmitters in the central nervous system that contribute to muscle tension and spasms, helping to relax muscles and relieve pain caused by contractions. This combination medication provides comprehensive relief from acute and chronic muscle pain accompanied by cramps.
The active ingredient in Myogesic Tablets
Myogesic Tablets contain the following two active ingredients, which work together to provide a pain-relieving and muscle-relaxing effect:
Paracetamol: An effective pain reliever and antipyretic. It works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins in the brain and central nervous system, reducing the sensation of pain. It also helps lower body temperature when it is elevated.
Orphenadrine Citrate: A centrally acting skeletal muscle relaxant. It works by inhibiting the action of certain neurotransmitters in the central nervous system, such as histamine, which helps relax muscles and reduce cramps and the resulting pain.
