How Myospaz D Tablet Works

Methocarbamol works as a muscle relaxant by acting on the central nervous system to reduce muscle tension and spasms. Diclofenac, an NSAID, helps reduce inflammation and pain by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins, which are chemicals in the body that cause pain and swelling. Together, they provide effective relief from muscle pain and inflammation.
