ETORICOXIB(60MG) + THIOCOLCHICOSIDE(8MG)

This medicine is prescribed for: - Acute pain and inflammation in joints and muscles - Lower back pain with muscle spasm - Painful muscle spasms - Osteoarthritis with muscle stiffness - Rheumatoid arthritis with associated muscle tension - Ankylosing spondylitis - Post-traumatic pain and swelling - Conditions requiring both pain relief and muscle relaxation

Etoricoxib works by blocking the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) in the body that cause pain, swelling, and inflammation. Thiocolchicoside acts on the central nervous system to reduce muscle stiffness and spasm by blocking nerve signals that cause muscles to contract abnormally. Together, they provide comprehensive relief from pain, inflammation, and muscle spasm.

Common side effects include nausea, indigestion, heartburn, stomach pain, diarrhea, dizziness, drowsiness, headache, and weakness. Some patients may experience dry mouth or increased sensitivity of skin to sunlight. Most side effects are mild and temporary, resolving as your body adjusts to the medicine. However, if you experience severe stomach pain, black stools, difficulty breathing, chest pain, or severe skin reactions, contact your doctor immediately.
