Product Overview
Synaptol is a medication containing the active ingredient Tolperisone. It is available in tablet form, with each tablet containing 50mg of Tolperisone. Synaptol is a muscle relaxant used to alleviate muscle spasms and stiffness associated with conditions such as muscle injuries, muscle strains, and neurological disorders. It works by acting directly on the central nervous system to relax muscles, thereby reducing pain and improving mobility.
Uses
Synaptol tablets are primarily used to treat muscle spasms and stiffness caused by various medical conditions. It is often prescribed for individuals with muscle injuries, muscle strains, or neurological disorders such as multiple sclerosis or cerebral palsy, where muscle relaxation is essential for symptom management. Synaptol helps relieve discomfort and improves the ability to perform daily activities by reducing muscle tension and rigidity.
How to Use
Synaptol tablets should be taken orally with a full glass of water, preferably with food to minimize stomach upset. The dosage and frequency of administration will depend on the severity of the muscle spasms and your response to treatment. It is essential to follow your healthcare provider’s instructions carefully and not to exceed the recommended dose to avoid potential side effects.
How it Works
Tolperisone, the active ingredient in Synaptol, is a centrally acting muscle relaxant that works by inhibiting the reflex arcs in the spinal cord, thereby reducing muscle tone and hyperactivity. By modulating the transmission of nerve signals, Tolperisone helps relax muscles and alleviate muscle spasms and stiffness. This mechanism of action allows for effective relief of muscle-related pain and discomfort.
Dosage and Administration
The typical starting dose of Synaptol for adults is 150mg to 300mg per day, divided into two to three doses. Your doctor may adjust the dosage based on your individual response and tolerance to the medication. It is important to take Synaptol as directed and not to stop or change the dosage without consulting your healthcare provider.
