About this product

Overview

Wilgesic Tablet is a combination medication containing orphenadrine and paracetamol. Orphenadrine is a skeletal muscle relaxant, while paracetamol is a pain reliever and fever reducer. Together, they provide effective relief for conditions associated with muscle spasms and pain.

Uses

Wilgesic Tablet is primarily prescribed for the management of acute musculoskeletal pain associated with conditions such as muscle spasms, strains, sprains, and other musculoskeletal injuries. Orphenadrine helps relieve muscle spasms by acting centrally on the nervous system, while paracetamol alleviates pain and reduces fever. This combination medication provides synergistic effects, offering relief from both pain and muscle stiffness.
