Active composition
+2 more active ingredients
Diclofenac inhibits COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes, leading to decreased synthesis of prostaglandins, which mediate pain and inflammation.
Paracetamol works by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, leading to reduced synthesis of prostaglandins in the brain, which are responsible for pain and fever.
Medical applications
Orthodex MR Tablet is a combination analgesic and muscle relaxant formulation containing Chlorzoxazone 500mg, Diclofenac 50mg, and Paracetamol 325mg. This medication is indicated for the relief of musculoskeletal pain associated with muscle spasms, strains, and sprains. Chlorzoxazone acts centrally to relax skeletal muscles by depressing the reflexes at the spinal cord level, thereby reducing muscle stiffness and discomfort.
Diclofenac, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), provides potent anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and antipyretic effects by inhibiting cyclooxygenase enzymes, leading to decreased prostaglandin synthesis. Paracetamol contributes additional analgesic and antipyretic benefits through central inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis, enhancing overall pain relief. Orthodex MR Tablet is typically prescribed for short-term management of acute musculoskeletal conditions and should be used under medical supervision.
Caution is advised in patients with hepatic, renal, or cardiovascular impairments, and it is contraindicated in individuals with known hypersensitivity to any component. Common adverse effects may include gastrointestinal discomfort, dizziness, or allergic reactions. Patients are advised to adhere to prescribed dosages and report any unusual symptoms to their healthcare provider promptly.
