Description
Etodolac & Thiocolchicoside Tablets – These tablets contain a Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug, i.e., Etodolac, and a Muscle Relaxant, i.e., Thiocolchicoside. This combination is used to treat pain, muscle spasms, osteoarthritis, and rheumatoid arthritis. Available with the brand name ETOWISE-TH, this medicine is manufactured and supplied by the Best Etodolac & Thiocolchicoside Tablet Manufacturer, Arlak Biotech.
Mechanism of Action
Etodolac inhibits a certain enzyme called cyclo-oxygenase that produces other chemical messengers called prostaglandins. While the effects of COX enzymes are blocked, it results in less production of prostaglandins. This helps in lowering minor to severe pain and swelling in the injured or damaged region.
Thiocolchicoside is a muscle relaxant that acts on the centers of the spinal cord and the brain. This facilitates better muscular movement and reduces muscle stiffness, which decreases pain caused by muscle spasms.
In this way, these medicines together provide relief from pain, swelling, and stiffness.
