How Setolac MR Products work
Etodolac + Thiocolchicoside is a combination of two medicines: Etodolac + Thiocolchicoside1 and Etodolac + Thiocolchicoside2, which relieves pain and relaxes the muscles. Etodolac + Thiocolchicoside1 is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) which works by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers that cause pain and inflammation (redness and swelling). Etodolac + Thiocolchicoside2 is a muscle relaxant. It works on the centers in the brain and spinal cord to relieve muscle stiffness or spasm. It relieves pain and improves the movement of muscles.
