Introduction

Etrik MR Tablet is a combination medication used to treat pain associated with muscle spasms. It contains Etoricoxib, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), and Thiocolchicoside, a muscle relaxant. Etoricoxib works by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers that cause pain and inflammation, while Thiocolchicoside acts on the brain and spinal cord to relieve muscle stiffness and improve movement. This combination helps in reducing pain and discomfort, thereby improving muscle movement. However, it may cause dizziness and fatigue, and it is advised to avoid alcohol consumption while on this medication. Regular monitoring of blood pressure is recommended, especially during the initial weeks of treatment. Consult your doctor if you have a history of stomach ulcers, heart diseases, high blood pressure, liver or kidney disease, or if you notice symptoms like yellowing of eyes or skin, dark urine, or stomach pain.

Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Swallow it as a whole. Do not chew, crush, or break it. Etrik MR Tablet may be taken with or without food, but it is better to take it at a fixed time.
