How Dexorin Tablet works
Dexorin Tablet is a combination of three pain relieving medicines: Ibuprofen, Paracetamol and Dextropropoxyphene. Ibuprofen and Paracetamol work by blocking the chemical messengers in brain that cause pain and inflammation (redness and swelling). Dextropropoxyphene works by blocking the transmission of pain signals to the brain, thereby further decreasing pain perception.
