About Relaxone XL 150 Tablet 10's

Relaxone XL 150 Tablet 10's 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.

Relaxone XL 150 Tablet 10's 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 Relaxone XL 150 Tablet 10's help to reduce pain and spasms in the muscle effectively.

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.
