Etoshine MR Tablet 10’s belongs to a group of medicines called Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) indicated for the treatment of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, gouty arthritis and ankylosing spondylitis, acute pain, chronic low back pain and muscle spasms. Pain is a symptom triggered by the nervous system, causing uncomfortable sensations in the body. Muscle spasm is the sudden involuntary contractions of the muscle, which can be painful and uncomfortable.

Etoricoxib blocks the effect of chemical messengers, which cause pain and inflammation. Thiocolchicoside works on the centres of the spinal cord and brain. This helps relieve muscle stiffness and improves muscle movements, thereby helping relieve pain due to muscle spasms.

Medicinal Benefits
Etoshine MR Tablet 10’s is a combination of two drugs: Etoricoxib (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs) and Thiocolchicoside (Muscle relaxant). Etoshine MR Tablet 10’s is used for the treatment of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, ankylosing spondylitis, acute pain, chronic low back pain and muscle spasms. Etoricoxib blocks the effect of a chemical messenger known as cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzyme that makes another chemical, prostaglandins, which are produced at injury sites and cause pain and swelling. By blocking the effect of COX enzymes, lesser prostaglandins are produced. This helps in reducing mild to moderate pain and inflammation at the injured or damaged site. Thiocolchicoside works on the centres of the spinal cord and brain. This helps relieve muscle stiffness and improves muscle movements, thereby helping relieve pain due to muscle spasms.
