Medicinal Benefits:

Bolofen Xl-30 Capsule belongs to the group of medicines called muscle relaxants used to reduce and relieve the muscle spasms (excessive tension in the muscles) occurring in various illnesses such as multiple sclerosis (a disorder which affects the brain and spinal cord), cerebrovascular accidents (damage to the brain due to lack of blood supply), cerebral palsy (a disorder of movement, posture and muscle tone), spinal cord diseases and other nervous system disorders. Bolofen Xl-30 Capsule works by inhibiting the reflexes at the spinal level and helps in relieving pain and improves muscle movements. Bolofen Xl-30 Capsule is particularly effective for relieving involuntary muscle spasms in the ankle, hip, and knee. Bolofen Xl-30 Capsule also helps in restoring muscle function; however, Bolofen Xl-30 Capsule is not effective for muscle spasms caused by stroke, Parkinson’s disease, or rheumatoid arthritis. Bolofen Xl-30 Capsule works on the centres of the spinal cord and brain, thereby helps in maintaining muscle strength and relieving muscle spasms or stiffness. Bolofen Xl-30 Capsule is used off-label to treat hiccups or Tourette’s syndrome (a nervous problem which causes people to make uncontrollable sudden movements or sounds).
