About DINAL MX TABLET

DINAL MX TABLET is a combination medicine used to relieve pain and inflammation associated with osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, muscle pain, and bone and joint 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. Arthritis is tenderness and swelling in the joints.

DINAL MX TABLET contains Thiocolchicoside (muscle relaxant), Aceclofenac (NSAID), and Paracetamol (Analgesic). Thiocolchicoside works on the centres of the spinal cord and brain. This helps relieve muscle stiffness and improves muscle movements. Aceclofenac and Paracetamol work by blocking the effect of chemical messengers that cause pain and inflammation.  Together, DINAL MX TABLET helps in relieving pain due to muscle spasms.

You are advised to take DINAL MX TABLET 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, stomach pain, loss of appetite, heartburn, and diarrhoea. 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.

Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. DINAL MX TABLET may cause drowsiness and dizziness, so drive with caution. DINAL MX TABLET should not be given to children as safety and efficacy have not been established. Avoid consuming alcohol with DINAL MX TABLET as it could lead to increased drowsiness and dizziness; it might also increase the risk of stomach bleeding. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and medicines to rule out any side effects/interactions.

Uses of DINAL MX TABLET

Pain and inflammation associated with musculoskeletal and joint disorders.

Directions for Use

Swallow DINAL MX TABLET as a whole with a glass of water; do not chew or break it.

Medicinal Benefits

DINAL MX TABLET is a combination of three drugs, namely: Thiocolchicoside, Aceclofenac, and Paracetamol. DINAL MX TABLET is used to relieve pain and inflammation associated with osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, muscle pain, bone and joint pain. DINAL MX TABLET increases the pain threshold and blood flow across the skin. Thiocolchicoside is a muscle relaxant which works on the centres of the spinal cord and brain. This helps relieve muscle stiffness and improves muscle movements. Aceclofenac and Paracetamol are analgesics that block the effect of a chemical messenger known as cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes that make another chemical, prostaglandins. These prostaglandins are produced at injury sites and cause pain and swelling. By blocking COX enzymes' effect, lesser prostaglandins are produced, which reduces mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site. Together, DINAL MX TABLET helps in relieving pain due to muscle spasms.
