Diclofenac + Paracetamol/Acetaminophen + Thiocolchicoside is a combination used to manage pain and muscle spasms.
Diclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication. It works by blocking certain chemicals in your body, called cyclooxygenase enzymes, which play a key role in inflammation. By doing this, it helps to reduce swelling, pain, and fever.
Paracetamol/Acetaminophen is an analgesic and an antipyretic. It eases pain and reduces fever by preventing the production of chemicals called prostaglandins in the central nervous system. These chemicals are released in response to illness or injury and can cause pain and fever.
Thiocolchicoside is a muscle relaxant. It works on the brain and nerves to relieve muscle stiffness or spasms without a reduction in strength. This improves the pain and movement of muscles.
