Relax 30 Capsules

Relax 30 Capsules

Description:

Relax 30 Capsules is an oral prescription-only muscle relaxant and analgesic combination designed to relieve painful muscle spasms and associated musculoskeletal pain. Each capsule contains chlorzoxazone, a centrally acting muscle relaxant with mild sedative properties, together with paracetamol (acetaminophen), a widely used pain reliever and fever reducer. This medication is typically used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan that may include rest, physical therapy, and other analgesics to support faster recovery from acute muscle strain, sprain, or injury. It is suitable for adult patients under medical supervision and is manufactured by Alfacure Pharmaceuticals.

Indications:

• Relief of painful muscle spasms associated with acute musculoskeletal conditions (e.g., back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, limb muscle strain).
• Adjunctive treatment of muscle spasm-related pain following minor injuries, sprains, or strains.
• Supportive therapy in combination with rest and physical therapy for acute lower back pain and lumbago.
• Reduction of muscle tension and stiffness that limits normal movement and daily activities.
• Short-term management of musculoskeletal pain where a muscle relaxant and analgesic combination is considered appropriate by a physician.

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Chlorzoxazone – concentration per capsule: information not available (centrally acting muscle relaxant, benzoxazolone derivative).
• Paracetamol (acetaminophen) – concentration per capsule: information not available (analgesic and antipyretic).
• Other inactive ingredients (excipients, capsule shell components, colorants, stabilizers): detailed composition not available. Refer to the product pack insert for the complete list of excipients.

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Use only as directed by your physician or healthcare provider. Do not exceed the prescribed dose.
• Typical adult dosage: the exact dose and frequency are determined by the doctor based on the severity of muscle spasm, pain intensity, and patient condition. Follow the prescription label carefully.
• Swallow the capsule whole with a full glass of water. Do not crush, chew, or open the capsule.
• May be taken with or after food to help reduce the risk of gastric discomfort.
• Duration of treatment is usually short term for acute episodes only. Do not use for prolonged periods without medical supervision.
• If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it is almost time for the next dose. Do not double the dose to make up for a missed one.
• Do not take other paracetamol-containing products concurrently to avoid accidental overdose of paracetamol.

Clinical Benefits:

• Provides effective relief from painful muscle spasms by acting centrally on the nervous system to relax skeletal muscles.
• Combines muscle relaxation (chlorzoxazone) with pain relief (paracetamol) to address both the cause and the symptom of musculoskeletal discomfort.
• Helps reduce muscle stiffness and tension, improving mobility and range of motion in affected areas.
• Supports faster functional recovery when used alongside rest, physiotherapy, and proper ergonomic measures.
• May improve sleep quality in patients whose rest is disturbed by muscle pain and spasms (due to its mild sedative muscle-relaxant effect).

Warnings & Contraindications:

• Contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity or allergy to chlorzoxazone, paracetamol, or any of the excipients.
• Contraindicated in severe liver impairment or active liver disease, as paracetamol and chlorzoxazone are metabolized by the liver.
• Use with caution in patients with a history of liver disease, chronic alcohol use, or those taking other hepatotoxic medications.
• Use with caution in patients with renal impairment; dosage adjustment may be required under medical supervision.
• May cause drowsiness, dizziness, or lightheadedness. Avoid driving, operating machinery, or performing tasks requiring alertness until you know how the medication affects you.
• Avoid alcohol consumption while taking this product, as it may increase the risk of liver damage and enhance sedative effects.
• Consult your doctor before use if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding. Use only if clearly needed and prescribed by a physician.
• Do not use concurrently with other paracetamol-containing products, strong sedatives, or muscle relaxants unless advised by your doctor.
• Consult your doctor before use if you have liver disease, kidney disease, chronic alcohol use, anemia, or if you are taking anticoagulants, antiepileptics, or other prescription medications.
• Not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease without proper medical evaluation and prescription.
• Keep out of reach of children.

• Common side effects may include drowsiness, dizziness, fatigue, headache, nausea, vomiting, stomach discomfort, or diarrhea.
• Less common side effects may include rash, itching, or other mild allergic reactions.
• Serious but rare side effects may include severe allergic reactions (swelling of face, lips, tongue, or throat; difficulty breathing), severe skin reactions, yellowing of the skin or eyes (jaundice), dark urine, persistent nausea or vomiting, unusual tiredness, or abdominal pain, which may indicate liver problems.
