Ketoflex Tablet 10'S

Question 1

How does Ketoflex Tablet 10'S work?

Accepted Answer

Ketoflex Tablet 10'S is a combination of two drugs: Ketoprofen and Thiocolchicoside. Ketoprofen blocks the effect of a chemical messenger known as cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzyme that makes another chemical 'prostaglandin' (PG). These prostaglandins are produced at injury sites and cause pain and swelling. By blocking the effect of chemicals ketoprofen helps in reducing mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site. Thiocolchicoside is a muscle relaxant that works on the centers of the spinal cord and brain. This helps relieve muscle stiffness and improves muscle movements, thereby helping relieve pain due to muscle spasms. This Ketoflex Tablet 10'S is thus better efficient in relieving inflammation and pain.
