Anorol 35mg/450mg Tablet x100 (Hovid)
Anorol is a potent skeletal muscle relaxant and analgesic combination formulated to provide effective relief from acute muscle pain and spasms. Manufactured by Hovid (Malaysia) and distributed in Nigeria by Phamatex Nigeria Limited, Anorol is a trusted solution for managing conditions that affect the musculoskeletal system.
How Anorol Works
Anorol tablets combine two active ingredients that work together to tackle pain from different angles:
- Orphenadrine Citrate (35mg): A centrally acting muscle relaxant that helps reduce muscle stiffness and spasms by acting on the motor centers of the brain.
- Paracetamol (450mg): A well-known analgesic and antipyretic that provides fast relief from pain and helps reduce fever.
Key Uses and Indications
Anorol is primarily used for the relief of discomfort associated with:
- Muscle Spasms: Sharp, involuntary muscle contractions.
- Back Pain and Sciatica: Relief from lower back pain and nerve-related discomfort.
- Tension Headaches: Specifically those caused by muscle tightness in the neck and shoulders.
- Strains and Sprains: Recovery from minor physical injuries.
Dosage and Administration
For adults, the typical Anorol tablet dosage is one tablet taken two to three times daily. It is recommended to swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. It can be taken with or without food. To avoid liver complications due to paracetamol, do not exceed the prescribed dose or take other products containing paracetamol simultaneously.
Precautions and Side Effects
Common side effects of Anorol may include dry mouth, dizziness, or mild drowsiness. Patients with glaucoma, prostate enlargement, or liver disease should consult a healthcare professional before use. If you have any concerns, you can speak with a GoMed pharmacist online for expert guidance.
