Dygesic Mr 50/500/250 MG Tablet Mr 10 is a combination medication that includes three active ingredients:

• Chlorzoxazone (250 mg): This component is a centrally-acting muscle relaxant. It works on the spinal cord and subcortical regions of the brain to inhibit multisynaptic reflex arcs, which are involved in producing and maintaining skeletal muscle spasms. By inhibiting these arcs, chlorzoxazone helps relieve painful muscle spasms and improves mobility.

• Diclofenac Potassium (50 mg): This is an NSAID that inhibits the cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes COX-1 and COX-2, resulting in decreased prostaglandin synthesis. This action helps reduce inflammation, swelling, and pain.

• Paracetamol/Acetaminophen (500 mg): Paracetamol is a centrally-acting analgesic and antipyretic. It works by raising the pain threshold and inhibiting central prostaglandin synthesis in the brain. This action helps relieve mild to moderate pain and reduces fever.

The combined effect of these three ingredients effectively relieves acute musculoskeletal pain by addressing pain through different pathways. They also reduce inflammation and muscle spasms that contribute to pain. The relatively low doses of each ingredient limit the risk of side effects compared to higher doses of single ingredients.
