About Dolo TH 4 Tablet

Dolo TH 4 Tablet is a combination medication used to reduce and relieve orthopaedic, traumatic,  and rheumatologic disorders. It helps relieve muscle spasms (painful muscular contractions) associated with degenerative vertebral disorders, vertebral static problems, dorsal pain, low back pain, and torticollis (neck muscle contractions). 

Dolo TH 4 Tablet is a combination of two drugs: Paracetamol (mild analgesic and antipyretic) and Thiocolchicoside (muscle relaxant). Paracetamol is an analgesic (relieves pain) and antipyretic (reduces fever) that works by inhibiting certain chemical messengers in the brain known as prostaglandins responsible for pain, inflammation and fever.

Disease/Condition Glossary

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. When the nerve impulses that control the muscle movements are damaged or interrupted, it could lead to muscle spasms. Symptoms include muscle tightness, joint stiffness, unusual posture, difficulty in moving, pain in affected muscles and joints. Fatigue (weakness), stress, extreme heat or cold, infection, and tight clothing can trigger muscle spasms. Muscle relaxants and exercise can treat muscle spasms. Muscle relaxants sedate the muscle and help in inhibiting painful contractions. Whereas, exercise helps in muscle stretching to be less likely to spasm, tear and sprain.
