TRAMADOL+DICLOFENAC+CHLORZOXAZONE is a combination medicine indicated for the relief of painful skeletal muscle spasms. Pain is a symptom triggered by the nervous system, causing uncomfortable sensations in the body. Muscle spasms are the involuntary contractions of muscles which can be painful. It is also used for osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and other musculoskeletal pain. Arthritis is a joint disease in which the two ends of the joints come together due to the breakdown of a protective covering called cartilage.
TRAMADOL+DICLOFENAC+CHLORZOXAZONE is a combination of three drugs, namely: Tramadol (Analgesic), Diclofenac (NSAID) and Chlorzoxazone (Muscle relaxant). Tramadol lowers pain perception by blocking the transmission of pain signals. Diclofenac works by inhibiting the synthesis of prostaglandins which are responsible for pain and inflammation. Chlorzoxazone acts on the centres of the brain and spinal cord, where it inhibits the multisynaptic reflex involved in muscle spasms, thereby providing relief from skeletal muscle spasms. Together, TRAMADOL+DICLOFENAC+CHLORZOXAZONE helps in relieving musculoskeletal pain.
You are advised to take TRAMADOL+DICLOFENAC+CHLORZOXAZONE for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side-effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, weakness, dry mouth and stomach pain. Most of these side-effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side-effects persistently.
TRAMADOL+DICLOFENAC+CHLORZOXAZONE is not recommended for use during pregnancy. Consult your doctor if you are breastfeeding. TRAMADOL+DICLOFENAC+CHLORZOXAZONE is not recommended for children as safety and effectiveness have not been established. Avoid consuming alcohol with TRAMADOL+DICLOFENAC+CHLORZOXAZONE as it could increase the risk of stomach bleeding. TRAMADOL+DICLOFENAC+CHLORZOXAZONE may cause sleepiness and dizziness, so drive only if you are alert. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and medicines to rule out any side-effects.
Musculoskeletal pain
TRAMADOL+DICLOFENAC+CHLORZOXAZONE is a combination of three drugs, namely: Tramadol, Diclofenac and Chlorzoxazone. TRAMADOL+DICLOFENAC+CHLORZOXAZONE is used to relieve pain and stiffness caused by muscle strains and sprains. Tramadol is an analgesic that lowers pain perception by blocking the transmission of pain signals. Diclofenac is an NSAID that works by inhibiting the synthesis of prostaglandins which are responsible for pain and inflammation. Chlorzoxazone is a muscle relaxant which acts on the centres of the brain and spinal cord, where it inhibits the multisynaptic reflex involved in muscle spasms, thereby providing relief from skeletal muscle spasms. Together, TRAMADOL+DICLOFENAC+CHLORZOXAZONE helps in relieving pain due to muscle spasms.

Musculoskeletal pain: Musculoskeletal pain affects the bones, muscles, ligaments, tendons and nerves. It can be acute or chronic, can be localised or wide-spread. The pain can be mild or severe enough to interfere with your daily routine. Musculoskeletal pain could occur due to arthritis, osteoporosis, fractures, dislocations, problems with the bone structure or injury to the bones, joints, tendons, muscles and ligaments. Symptoms of musculoskeletal pain include stiffness, swelling, redness, weakness, muscle spasms or twitching, trouble moving the affected area, and soreness.
Osteoarthritis: It is a joint disease in which the two ends of the joints come together due to the breakdown of a protective covering called cartilage. Due to the absence of this protective covering, the joints rub against each other, leading to pain and stiffness. Symptoms include pain, stiffness, inflammation and tenderness.
Rheumatoid arthritis: It is an auto-immune disease (body's immune system attacks its tissue), leading to joint pain and damage. Symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis include pain, swelling, stiffness, deformities and loss of joint function.
