About Sulid-MR Tablet

Sulid-MR Tablet is a combination medicine used to relieve pain due to muscle spasms such as arthritis, muscle pain, tooth pain, bone and joint pain, headache, and period 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.
 
Sulid-MR Tablet contains Nimesulide (analgesic), Paracetamol (mild analgesic and fever reducer), and Tizanidine (muscle relaxant). Nimesulide and Paracetamol work by blocking the effect of chemical messengers that cause pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site. Tizanidine works on the centres of the spinal cord and brain, which helps relieve muscle stiffness, thereby improving muscle movements. Together, Sulid-MR Tablet helps in reducing pain due to muscle spasms.
 
You are advised to take Sulid-MR Tablet for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you depending on your medical condition. You may experience certain common side-effects such as nausea, vomiting, dizziness, dry mouth, and diarrhoea in some cases. 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.
