Eprenac Tablet is a combination medicine used to treat pain associated with muscle spasms that usually occur due to muscle strains, sprains, or injuries in the lower back. It reduces muscle stiffness and enables easy movement of the muscle. The common causes of muscle spasms are lack of regular exercise, improper postural lifting, inadequate or poor posture, and fractures.

Eprenac Tablet contains Eperisone and Aceclofenac. Eperisone is an antispasmodic. It works by relaxing skeletal muscles and reducing myotonia (inability of muscles to relax). It relaxes vascular smooth muscles (present in the blood vessel wall) and improves blood circulation. Aceclofenac is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It works by reducing prostaglandins' production (chemical substances that cause pain and inflammation) at the affected site (muscle) and easing pain.

Take Eprenac Tablet  exactly as prescribed by your doctor. Eprenac Tablet may cause certain common side effects such as nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, heartburn, diarrhoea, indigestion, flatulence (gas), lack of appetite, headache, weakness, drowsiness, disorientation, and skin rash or patches. Most of these adverse effects are minimal and only last a short time. Contact your doctor right away if any of these side effects persist or worsen.

Before taking Eprenac Tablet , notify your doctor if you have stomach bleeding or ulcers, a history of stomach or intestinal troubles with NSAIDs, severe liver, kidney, or heart failure, a history of heart attack or stroke, or problems with blood circulation. Pregnant women and nursing mothers should consult a doctor before taking Eprenac Tablet . It should be used with caution in older individuals. Alcohol should be avoided at all costs because it increases the risk of harmful consequences. Do not drive or operate heavy machinery if you are not fully attentive, as Eprenac Tablet may cause dizziness or drowsiness.

Eprenac Tablet is used to treat pain associated with muscle spasms that usually occur due to muscle strains, sprains, or injuries in the lower back. It contains eperisone and aceclofenac. Eperisone is a muscle relaxant that shows an analgesic effect (relieve pain), whereas aceclofenac can reduce pain, swelling, and inflammation in the muscles. It reduces muscle stiffness and enables the easy movement of the muscle. For the best results, rest and physical therapy are also essential along with Eprenac Tablet .

• Regular exercise helps to stretch muscles, making them less likely to spasm, tear, or sprain. Muscle stretching can be accomplished with light workouts such as running and walking.
• Deep tissue massages with a muscle massager are thought to be beneficial.
• Wear loose-fitting clothing instead of tight-fitting clothing.
• Get plenty of rest and sleep (at least 8 hours for adults).
• Muscle spasms can be treated with either hot or cold therapy.
• For 15-20 minutes, apply an ice pack or a heat pack to the muscle.
• Glycine (protein) is a wonderful food for your muscles; therefore, try to include it in your daily diet.

• If Eprenac Tablet is prescribed for longer durations, your doctor may propose that you have regular blood tests to check your liver function.
• To decrease stomach and intestine side effects like diarrhoea and upset stomach, take Eprenac Tablet with food.

Pain due to muscle spasms: It is a common condition that occurs due to injury, sprain, or strain to the muscles, bones, or ligaments present in the lower portion of the spine. The common causes are lack of regular exercise, improper postural lifting, inadequate or poor posture, and fracture. Pain in the lower back is the only symptom often seen with this condition. Analgesics (pain relievers) and physical therapy can help to relieve pain. Exercise helps in muscle stretching so that they are less likely to spasm, tear and sprain.
