How Does It Work?

• Powergesic MR tablet works by the combined action of its three components - diclofenac, paracetamol, and chlorzoxazone.

• Chlorzoxazone is a muscle relaxant that works by blocking the signals of painful sensation through the nerve to the brain. This helps to reduces pain and stiffness.

• Swallow it as a whole with a glass of water.
• Do not cut, break, or chew the medicine.
• It would be best if you take it at a fixed time for optimal results.
