How Diclofenac + Eperisone works

  • Diclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It works by stopping the body from producing a substance called prostaglandins, which cause pain, inflammation and fever. By reducing these levels, it helps to alleviate associated symptoms.

  • Eperisone is a muscle relaxant. It acts on the central nervous system, specifically the brain and spinal cord, to reduce muscle stiffness and spasms by decreasing the excitability of motor neurons.
