How it Works

Divorel AS 50mg/500mg/20mg Tablet is a combination of three medicines: Diclofenac, Chlorzoxazone and Dicyclomine. Diclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) which works by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers in the brain that cause pain and inflammation (swelling). Chlorzoxazone is a muscle relaxant. It works on the centres in the brain and spinal cord to relieve muscle stiffness or spasm and improve movement of muscles. Dicyclomine is an anticholinergic which relaxes the muscles in the stomach and gut (intestine) and relieves cramps and pain.
