Medicinal Benefits

Kaztime MR 50mg/400mg Tablet is a combination of two drugs: Diclofenac and Metaxalone. Diclofenac is an NSAID (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drug), and metaxalone is a skeletal muscle relaxant. Kaztime MR 50mg/400mg Tablet is used to reduce and relieve pain due to muscle spasms (excessive tension in the muscles). Diclofenac works by blocking the effect of a chemical messenger in the body, known as cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes that make another chemical prostaglandins. These prostaglandins are produced at injury sites and cause pain and swelling. By blocking the effect of COX enzymes, lesser prostaglandins are produced, which reduces mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site. Metaxalone works on the centres of the spinal cord and brain, thereby helps in maintaining muscle strength and relieves muscle spasms or stiffness. Together, Kaztime MR 50mg/400mg Tablet helps in relieving pain due to muscle spasms.
