About Eprisan SR Capsule

Eprisan SR Capsule belongs to the class of medications called ‘antispasmodics’ used to treat muscle spasms. Muscle spasm is the sudden painful and involuntary muscle contractions which occur when the nerve impulses that control the muscle movements are damaged or interrupted. It is characterized by muscle tightness, joint stiffness, unusual posture, difficulty moving, and pain in affected muscles and joints.

Eprisan SR Capsule contains ‘Eperisone’, which belongs to the class of antispasmodics. It works by relaxing skeletal muscles and reducing myotonia (inability of muscles to relax). It can relax vascular smooth muscles (muscle found in the wall of blood vessels) and improve blood circulation. It can also suppress pain reflexes. These effects of Eprisan SR Capsule help to reduce pain and spasms in the muscle effectively.

Eprisan SR Capsule is available in the form of tablets. You should take this medicine exactly as prescribed by your doctor. The common side effects of Eprisan SR Capsule are nausea, vomiting, stomach discomfort, headache, weakness, drowsiness and dizziness. These side effects are mild and temporary. However, inform your doctor immediately if any of these side effects persist or get worse.

It is not recommended to take Eprisan SR Capsule if you are allergic to Eprisan SR Capsule or any other contents. It is also not recommended for breastfeeding women. Before taking Eprisan SR Capsule, inform your doctor if you have any liver disease or are pregnant. Eprisan SR Capsule is not recommended for use in children. Elderly patients may require dose adjustments. Eprisan SR Capsule may not interact with alcohol. Eprisan SR Capsule may cause dizziness, so do not drive or operate heavy machinery if you feel dizzy.

Uses of Eprisan SR Capsule

Muscle spasm

Directions for Use

Eprisan SR Capsule should be swallowed as a whole with a glass of water. Do not crush, chew, or break the tablet. The dose and duration of Eprisan SR Capsule are determined by the doctor based on your health condition.

Medicinal Benefits

Eprisan SR Capsule is a muscle relaxant that also shows an analgesic effect. It reduces muscle stiffness and spasticity, enabling the movement of muscles easily. It is usually well tolerated when taken at recommended doses. Though it causes drowsiness, this effect has a very low incidence with Eprisan SR Capsule compared to other antispasmodic drugs. It can be used during rehabilitation (restoring functional ability in people with physical disabilities) as it can allow voluntary movement of the upper and lower extremities without using muscle power.

Storage

Keep this medicine out of the sight and reach of children.

Drug Warnings

Eprisan SR Capsule may cause liver damage, so it should be used cautiously in patients with liver diseases. If you notice dizziness, sleepiness and weakness, you should refrain from activities that require you to stay alert, such as driving or operating heavy machinery. Also, inform your doctor if these effects are persistent or worse, the doctor may make dose adjustments based on the severity of side effects.

  • Avoid wearing tight-fitting clothes; instead, wear loose garments.
  • Rest well and get optimal sleep (at least 8 hours for adults).
  • Hot or cold therapy can help treat muscle spasms.
  • Apply an ice pack or hot-pack on the muscle for 15-20 minutes.
  • Try to include glycine (protein) in your daily diet, which is good food for your muscle.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Muscle spasm: Muscle contractions that occur unexpectedly and without warning can be unpleasant and uncomfortable. Muscle spasms can occur when the nerve signals that control muscle action are disrupted or stopped. Muscle tightness, joint stiffness, atypical posture, trouble moving, and discomfort in afflicted muscles and joints are all symptoms. Muscle spasms can be triggered by fatigue (weakness), stress, excessive heat or cold, illness, and tight clothing. Muscular relaxants and exercise can both be used to treat muscle spasms. Muscle relaxants numb the muscle and aid in preventing unpleasant contractions. Exercise helps muscles stretch, making them less prone to spasms, tears, or sprains.
