Tolkem Sr 450 Tablet 10 contains Tolperisone (450 mg), which acts on the body in the following ways:

• Blocks Sodium and Calcium Channels: Tolperisone interferes with voltage-gated sodium and calcium channels in neurons. This action hinders the release of neurotransmitters that trigger muscle contraction.
• Inhibits Spinal Reflexes: This medication also suppresses polysynaptic reflexes in the spine which are involved in muscle contraction and spasticity.

• Keep Tolkem Sr 450 Tablet 10 in a cool, dry place at a temperature below 30°C.
• Protect the medicine from light and moisture.
• Always keep the medicine away from children and pets.
• Make sure you use this medicine before its expiry date.

• If you live with conditions like Parkinson's disease or multiple sclerosis, maintain a balanced diet rich in antioxidants. Foods like berries, nuts, and green leafy vegetables can help manage oxidative stress associated with these conditions.
• Regular gentle exercise such as yoga or tai chi can help improve mobility and reduce muscle stiffness. But remember to consult your doctor before starting any new exercise regimen.
