FLEXABENZ 10 Tablets

Flexabenz

Cyclobenzaprine belongs to the ‘muscle relaxant’ class of drugs, which are used to treat muscle spasms and excessive muscle tension caused by a variety of disorders. Muscle spasms are unpleasant and inconvenient muscle contractions that occur suddenly and without warning. Muscle spasms can occur when nerve impulses that govern muscle action are disrupted or stopped.

Flexabenz contains ‘cyclobenzaprine,’ which helps reduce pain and improve muscular movements by acting on the central nervous system at the brain stem and alleviating muscle spasm. Flexabenz works on the brain and spinal cord to preserve muscle strength and relieve muscle spasms and stiffness.
