How Tizpa D Tablet works
Tizpa D Tablet is a combination of two medicines: Diclofenac and Tizanidine, which relieves pain and relaxes the muscles. Diclofenac is a non-steroidal anti- inflammatory drug (NSAID) which works by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers that cause pain and inflammation (redness and swelling). Tizanidine is a muscle relaxant. It works on the centres in the brain and spinal cord to relieve muscle stiffness or spasm and to improve pain and movement of muscles.
