Trinaspas Tablet

Trinaspas Tablet is a combination medicine used to relieve pain and discomfort associated with intestinal colic, biliary colic, renal colic and spasmodic dysmenorrhoea (menstrual cramps). Additionally, Trinaspas Tablet is also used to reduce pain and inflammation associated with osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, backache, strain, and sprain. 
 
Trinaspas Tablet is a combination of three drugs, namely: Diclofenac, Paracetamol and Dicyclomine. Diclofenac and Paracetamol work by blocking the effect of chemical messengers that cause pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site. Dicyclomine works by relieving contractions associated with the smooth muscles of the abdomen. Together, Trinaspas Tablet helps in providing relief from pain.
 
You are advised to take Trinaspas Tablet for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, Trinaspas Tablet may cause common side-effects such as nausea, vomiting, heartburn, dizziness, and diarrhoea. 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.
 
Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Trinaspas Tablet may cause dizziness, so drive with caution. Trinaspas Tablet should not be given to children as safety and efficacy have not been established. Avoid consuming alcohol with Trinaspas Tablet as it could lead to increased dizziness; it might also increase the risk of stomach bleeding. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and medicines to rule out any side-effects.

Trinaspas Tablet is a combination of three drugs, namely: Diclofenac (NSAID), Paracetamol (Analgesic) and Dicyclomine (Anti-cholinergic). Trinaspas Tablet is used to relieve pain and discomfort associated with intestinal colic, biliary colic, renal colic and spasmodic dysmenorrhoea (menstrual cramps). Additionally, Trinaspas Tablet is also used to reduce pain and inflammation associated with osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, backache, strain, and sprain. Diclofenac and Paracetamol work by blocking the effect of chemical messengers known as cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes that make other chemical prostaglandins which are produced at injury sites and cause pain and swelling. By blocking the effect of COX enzymes, lesser prostaglandins are produced, which reduces mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site. Dicyclomine works by relieving contractions associated with the smooth muscles of the abdomen. Together, Trinaspas Tablet helps in providing relief from abdominal spasms.
