It is muscle relaxant agent with analgesic actions and is used topically for the treatment of muscular spasms and for rheumatologic, orthopedic, and traumatologic disorders. Muscoril is a drug with the capacity to reduce muscle tone and may either be a peripherally acting muscle relaxant such as curare and act to produce blockade at the neuromuscular junction (and thus useful in surgery), or act as a centrally acting muscle relaxant exerting its effects within the brain and spinal cord to diminish muscle tone (and thus useful in muscle spasm or spasticity). Thiocolchicoside (TCC) is a non-sedating muscle relaxant that has been shown to be safe and effective as monotherapy in the treatment of this problem. Thiocolchicoside Muscoril, a muscle relaxant agent, is frequently administered in association regimen with other drugs, such as anti-inflammatory drugs or vitamins.
