Sirdalud 2mg Tablet (Sachet)

Sirdalud 2mg is a centrally acting skeletal muscle relaxant containing the active ingredient Tizanidine hydrochloride. It is primarily used to treat painful muscle spasms and spasticity associated with spinal or neurological conditions.

In Nigeria, Sirdalud is a trusted choice for managing discomfort from acute back pain (lumbar syndrome), neck pain, and recovery after orthopedic surgery.

What is Sirdalud 2mg used for?

Sirdalud 2mg tablets are prescribed for:

• Acute Muscle Spasms: Fast relief for painful spasms in the back, neck, or shoulders.
• Chronic Spasticity: Management of muscle stiffness caused by conditions like Multiple Sclerosis (MS), spinal cord injury, or stroke.
• Post-Surgical Recovery: Relief from spasms following operations.

How Sirdalud (Tizanidine) Works

Tizanidine works as an alpha-2-adrenergic agonist. It acts on the spinal cord to block nerve signals that cause muscles to tighten or spasm. This reduces muscle tone and stiffness without significantly reducing muscle strength, helping you move more comfortably.
