About Myotop P Tablet

Myotop P Tablet is used to treat muscle spasms. It improves the movement of muscles and provides relief from pain and discomfort caused by the muscle spasm. A muscle spasm occurs due to involuntary contractions of a muscle. A spasm may be a twitch in the muscle or may feel tight or hard, like a knot.

Myotop P Tablet is a combination of two drugs: Tolperisone (muscle relaxant) and Paracetamol (pain killer). Tolperisone works on the spinal cord and brain to relieve contraction or muscle stiffness. It also increases the supply of blood to the muscles. Paracetamol is an analgesic (pain reliever) and an antipyretic (fever reducer). It inhibits cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes that further prevent the formation of chemical messengers called 'prostaglandins' (PGs). These prostaglandins are produced at injury sites and cause pain and swelling. By blocking the COX enzyme's effect, lesser PGs are produced, which reduces mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site.

Your doctor will decide the dose and duration based on the severity of your pain. Common side effects of Myotop P Tablet include nausea, vomiting, dry mouth, dizziness, weakness and sleepiness. These side effects are not familiar to everyone and vary individually.

Let your doctor know if you use any prescription and non-prescription medications before starting Myotop P Tablet . Inform your doctor if you have any liver, heart or kidney diseases, myasthenia gravis (fatigue of muscles) and phenylketonuria (a genetic disorder that causes an amino acid build-up, phenylalanine) and alcohol dependency. Consult your doctor before taking Myotop P Tablet if you are pregnant or planning for pregnancy. Myotop P Tablet may cause dizziness, so drive only if you are alert and focused. Myotop P Tablet should not be given to children as safety has not been established. Avoid consuming alcohol and Myotop P Tablet as it could lead to increased dizziness and risk of liver damage.

Medicinal Benefits

Myotop P Tablet treats muscle spasms and consists of Tolperisone (muscle relaxant) and Paracetamol (pain killer). Tolperisone is a centrally-acting muscle relaxant. It works on the spinal cord and brain to relieve contraction or muscle stiffness. It also increases the supply of blood to the muscles. Paracetamol is an analgesic (pain reliever) and an antipyretic (fever reducer). It inhibits cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes that further prevent the formation of chemical messengers called 'prostaglandins' (PGs). These prostaglandins are produced at injury sites and cause pain and swelling. By blocking the COX enzyme's effect, fewer PGs are produced, which reduces mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site.
