Nicip MR Tablet comprises three active components:

• Chlorzoxazone (375 mg): Acts on specific areas of your brain and spinal cord to inhibit certain reflex actions that cause muscle spasms, leading to muscle relaxation without affecting muscle strength.

• Nimesulide (100 mg): Works by inhibiting enzymes called cyclooxygenase (COX), mainly COX-2, which reduces the production of substances called prostaglandins that mediate inflammation, pain, and fever.

• Paracetamol/Acetaminophen (325 mg): Thought to work mainly in the central nervous system where it increases the threshold for pain and inhibits both COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes, reducing prostaglandin production and hence decreasing pain and fever.

Through combined action of these components - muscle relaxation from chlorzoxazone, anti-inflammatory effect from nimesulide and analgesia from paracetamol - this medicine provides relief from painful muscle spasms.

• Store Nicip MR Tablet in a cool, dry place.

• To help manage muscle spasms and related pain, try to incorporate light stretching exercises into your daily routine as advised by your doctor or physiotherapist. This can help enhance muscle flexibility and reduce spasm frequency.

• Consider adopting an anti-inflammatory diet that includes foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids like fish and nuts, antioxidants like fruits and vegetables, and spices like turmeric and ginger. This may assist in reducing inflammation, potentially complementing the anti-inflammatory action of Nicip MR Tablet.
