How it works
Indard-DMR Tablet is a combination of a muscle relaxant (Chlorzoxazone) and two pain relieving medicines (Diclofenac and Paracetamol). The muscle relaxant works on the centers in the brain and spinal cord to relieve muscle stiffness or spasm, thereby improving movement of muscles. The pain relieving medicines work by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers in the brain that cause pain and inflammation (redness and swelling).

Is Indard-DMR Tablet safe to use?
Indard-DMR Tablet is generally safe for most patients.

Can I use Indard-DMR Tablet if I experience nausea or vomiting?
Yes, you can take Indard-DMR Tablet with milk, food, or antacids to help mitigate symptoms of nausea. Avoid fatty or fried foods while taking this medication.
