How it works
Wingesic MR 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 Wingesic MR Tablet safe to use?
Wingesic MR Tablet is generally considered safe for most patients. However, some people may experience common side effects like nausea, vomiting, heartburn, stomach pain, diarrhea, loss of appetite, dry mouth, weakness, sleepiness, and other less common or rare side effects. If you notice persistent problems after using this medication, report them to your doctor immediately.
Can I stop taking Wingesic MR Tablet once my pain is relieved?
