Medicinal Benefits

Spasmit Tablet belongs to a group of medicines called NSAIDs (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs) used to provide relief from mild to moderate pain and inflammation associated with musculoskeletal, rheumatic, arthritic disorders, headaches, trauma, dental pain, and pain after surgery or childbirth. Additionally, Spasmit Tablet is used to relieve period pain, symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS), and management of excessively heavy periods. Spasmit Tablet works by blocking the effect of a chemical messenger in your body, known as cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes, which make another chemical, prostaglandins. These prostaglandins are produced at injury sites and cause pain and swelling. By blocking the effect of COX enzymes, fewer prostaglandins are produced, which reduces mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site.

Spasmit Tablet contains 'mefenamic acid', which works by blocking the effect of chemical messengers that cause pain and inflammation. Thereby relieving pain and inflammation.
