Rlax TD Tablet 10's

Rlax TD Tablet is a combination medicine that contains pain relievers and muscle relaxants. It is used to treat spasticity (muscle stiffness and spasms) associated with pain. Pain is a symptom triggered by the nervous system, causing uncomfortable sensations in the body. A muscle spasm occurs due to involuntary contractions of a muscle. A spasm may be a muscle cramp or feel tight or stiff, like a knot.

Rlax TD Tablet contains Diclofenac (NSAID) and Tizanidine (muscle relaxant). Diclofenac blocks prostaglandins (PGs) that cause pain and swelling. Tizanidine works on the centres of the spinal cord and brain. This helps relieve muscle stiffness and improves muscle movements. As a result, Rlax TD Tablet helps to reduce muscle stiffness, spasms, and pain.
