Tolperisone 150mg + Diclofenac 50mg Tablets

Product Introduction

Tolperisone 150mg + Diclofenac 50mg combines a muscle relaxant with an NSAID for painful musculoskeletal spasm accompanied by inflammation. It addresses both abnormal muscle tightness and inflammatory pain that restrict movement.

How to use

Take after food with water. Use a short course for the acute painful episode rather than repeatedly extending treatment. Avoid adding ibuprofen, naproxen, diclofenac or another NSAID from a separate pain or cold product.

How it works

Tolperisone reduces excessive central reflex activity contributing to muscle spasm. Diclofenac inhibits cyclo-oxygenase and prostaglandin production, reducing inflammatory pain and swelling.

Side effects

Nausea, indigestion, stomach pain, dizziness and weakness may occur. Black stools, vomiting blood, chest pain, reduced urine output or a serious allergic reaction need urgent attention.

Important information

A history of ulcers or gastrointestinal bleeding, kidney disease and cardiovascular disease materially affects suitability. Anticoagulants increase bleeding risk. Diclofenac can cause fetal kidney or cardiac harm in later pregnancy; pregnancy and breastfeeding require a different treatment assessment.
