About Thioquest D4 Mg Tablet

Thioquest D4 Mg Tablet is a combination medication primarily used to reduce and relieve pain due to muscle spasms (painful muscular contractions) associated with degenerative vertebral disorders, torticollis (neck muscle contractions), and upper and lower back pain. Pain is a symptom triggered by the nervous system, causing uncomfortable sensations in the body. Muscle spasm is the sudden involuntary contractions of the muscle, which can be painful and uncomfortable.

Thioquest D4 Mg Tablet is a combination of two drugs: Diclofenac and Thiocolchicoside. Diclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (pain killer/NSAID) and relieves pain. It inhibits cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes and further prevents the formation of chemical messengers, 'prostaglandins' (PGs), that cause pain and swelling at the injured or damaged site. Thiocolchicoside is a muscle relaxant that works on the centres of the spinal cord and brain. This helps reduce muscle stiffness and improves muscle movements, thereby relieving pain due to muscle spasms.

Your doctor will decide the dose and duration based on the severity of your pain. Common side effects of Thioquest D4 Mg Tablet include nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, stomach pain, diarrhoea, and heartburn. These side effects are not familiar to everyone and vary individually. However, if the side effects are persistent, please reach out to your doctor.

Before starting Thioquest D4 Mg Tablet , inform your doctor if you have any liver, heart or kidney diseases, high blood pressure, diabetes, stomach ulcers, asthma, muscular hypotonia (decreased muscle tone), flaccid paresis (loose and floppy limbs), autoimmune diseases (systemic lupus erythematosus), and smoking habit. Thioquest D4 Mg Tablet is not recommended for pregnant and breastfeeding women. Thioquest D4 Mg Tablet should not be given to children and adolescents below 18 years of age as safety has not been established. Avoid consuming alcohol while undergoing treatment with Thioquest D4 Mg Tablet .

Medicinal Benefits

Thioquest D4 Mg Tablet treats pain due to muscle spasms. It contains Diclofenac and Thiocolchicoside. Diclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAIDs) and relieves pain. It inhibits cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes that further prevents the formation of chemical messengers called 'prostaglandins (PGs). These prostaglandins are produced at injury sites and cause pain and swelling. By blocking COX enzymes' effect, lesser PGs are produced, which reduces mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site. Thiocolchicoside is a muscle relaxant that works on the centres of the spinal cord and brain. This helps reduce muscle stiffness and improves muscle movements, thereby relieving pain due to muscle spasms.
