About Novagesic MR Tablet

Novagesic MR Tablet is a combination medicine that contains pain relievers and muscle relaxants. It is used to treat spasticity (muscle stiffness and spasms) associated with pain. Pain is a symptom triggered by the nervous system, causing uncomfortable sensations in the body. A muscle spasm occurs due to involuntary contractions of a muscle. A spasm may be a muscle cramp or feel tight or stiff, like a knot.

Novagesic MR Tablet contains Diclofenac, Paracetamol and Tizanidine. Diclofenac and Paracetamol blocks prostaglandins (PGs) that cause pain and swelling. Tizanidine works on the centres of the spinal cord and brain. This helps relieve muscle stiffness and improves muscle movements. As a result, Novagesic MR Tablet helps to reduce muscle stiffness, spasms, and pain. In addition, paracetamol lowers the high temperature by affecting the chemical messengers in an area of the brain that regulates body temperature.

Novagesic MR Tablet is prescribed medication, and it should be taken as directed by the doctor. In some cases, you may experience common side effects such as vomiting, diarrhoea, headaches, drowsiness and ringing in your ears (tinnitus), fluctuations in blood pressure, dry mouth, stomach upsets, and a decrease or increase in heart rate. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually. If any of these effects persist, consult your doctor.

Avoid taking Novagesic MR Tablet if you are allergic to any of its components. Before taking Novagesic MR Tablet , tell your doctor about your medical history and other medications you are currently taking to rule out any possible side effects. Novagesic MR Tablet is not recommended for use in pregnancy. If you are breastfeeding, consult your doctor before taking Novagesic MR Tablet . This medicine may cause dizziness, so drive only if you are alert and focused. Novagesic MR Tablet should not be given to children as safety has not been established. Avoid consuming alcohol while on treatment with Novagesic MR Tablet as it could lead to liver damage.

Key Benefits

Novagesic MR Tablet contains Diclofenac, Paracetamol and Tizanidine. Diclofenac and Paracetamol inhibit the production of prostaglandins (PGs), which induce pain and swelling. Tizanidine modulates the spinal cord and brain centres. This aids in the relief of muscle stiffness and the improvement of muscle movements.

Besides this, paracetamol reduces elevated temperature by altering the chemical messengers in the brain area that regulates body temperature.

How Novagesic MR Tablet Works

Novagesic MR Tablet contains Diclofenac, Paracetamol and Tizanidine. Reducing Pain and Inflammation: Diclofenac, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication (NSAID), effectively lowers pain and inflammation by inhibiting the formation of prostaglandins. Reducing fever: Paracetamol, an antipyretic, lowers fever by changing the chemical messengers in the brain that regulate body temperature. Muscle relaxation: Tizanidine, a muscle relaxant, operates in the brain and spinal cord to reduce muscular stiffness and spasms by decreasing the release of excitatory amino acids.
