Acwan P TZ 100mg/325mg/2mg Tablet is a combination of three drugs, namely: Tizanidine, Aceclofenac, and Paracetamol. Acwan P TZ 100mg/325mg/2mg Tablet is used to relieve pain and inflammation associated with osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, muscle pain, tooth pain, bone and joint pain, headache, and period pain. Tizanidine is a muscle relaxant which works on the centres of the spinal cord and brain. This helps relieve muscle stiffness and improves muscle movements. Aceclofenac and Paracetamol are analgesics which work by blocking the effect of a chemical messenger known as cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes that make other chemical prostaglandins. Prostaglandins are produced at injury sites and cause pain and swelling. By blocking the COX enzymes' effect, lesser prostaglandins are produced, which reduces mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site. Together, Acwan P TZ 100mg/325mg/2mg Tablet helps in relieving pain and fever due to muscle spasms.
