Lornoxicam is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It decreases pain and inflammation by reducing the production of certain chemicals called prostaglandins. It does so by blocking cyclooxygenase enzymes, which are involved in the production of these pain-causing chemicals.
Thiocolchicoside is a muscle relaxant. It works at the spinal cord level to reduce muscle stiffness or spasms without reduction in strength. This improves the pain and movement of muscles.
