Parafon Forte DSC Oral Uses
This medication is used to treat pain and discomfort from muscle injuries such as strains, sprains, and spasms. It provides temporary relief and is usually used along with rest, physical therapy, and other treatments (e.g., nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medication). This medication relaxes tight muscles and relieves pain, cramping, and stiffness so you can move around more and get back to doing your daily activities. Chlorzoxazone belongs to a class of drugs called muscle relaxants. It is thought to work on the nerves to relieve muscle pain. It may also relieve pain by calming your nervous system.
